Hi mates, some bibliography advice would be appreciated. I've completed all Calculus courses (up to ODE) offered by my college and had some summer courses on Numerical Analysis. Later this semester, I will be looking into Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of Mechanics followed by a year long course on Quantum Mechanics. I was intending to review as much as Calculus as possible but with a greater emphasis on some mathematical concepts like continuity, limits, smoothness and such. Are there any books available like that? Thanks in advance and sorry for the wall of text.

It is that website that led me to OpenStudy. I had never heard of OS before that.

I clicked on one of the Calculus texts by Paul Dawkins and saw the attached message on the left margin.

That's cool. I've heard of OS when I was at the MIT OpenCourseware and have been around here since then. Also there's a large online compendium of links and bibliography at https://sites.google.com/site/scienceandmathguide/ :) I use it a lot too.
