I'm a high school student who's aspiring to be a physicist. And of course to do that Ii have to have a solid foundation of mathematics and basic science. How good is pic related at providing a foundation. It really seems complicated and for experienced persons but If it truly is fundamental to my education I will study it.

Also good sources of information thread.

That book tries to cover way too much information for one book. Not worth it.

why don't you get an intro physics text like Halliday/Resnick

and then Taylor's Classical mechanics
both can be downloaded for free at libgen.io

there are many other texts and topics, of course, but the two above will be a good place for you to begin

>a solid foundation

will require hundreds/thousands of books
there's no "here's your foundation" book
just read it - if reading one book is a big enough event to warrant any serious consternation or debate then you'll never make it

How about you fuck off until you're not underage.

it is shit an complicated

this is the best book to introduce physics.
in passing, I promote the FREE books of
http://www.motionmountain.net/
which explain physics from A to Z

please read equally on history of science and philosophy of science

That's just a book you read for fun. Go work through some textbooks.

Absolute shit. Buy Principles of Quantum Mechanics by Shankar off Amazon for starters.
