Berry, M.V. (). Principles of Cosmology and Gravitation. Institute of Physics Publishing. Cambridge (2009). ISBN 0-85274-037-9 (Paperback) (179 pages)
A very elementary yet useful introduction to cosmology.
Bondy, J.A.; Murty, U.S.R. (). Graph Theory. Springer, Graduate Texts in Mathematics (244). United Kingdom (2010). ISBN 978-1-84628-969-9 (Hardcover) (English) (651 pages)
A very nice, comprehensive, and detailed book on graph theory.
Bransden, B.H.; Joachain, C.J. (1989, 2000). Quantum Mechanics (Second Edition). Prentice Hall. United Kingdom (2000). ISBN 0582-35691-1 (Paperback) (English) (803 pages)
You need a very solid mathematical background fully to enjoy this book, and even then you may be somewhat bothered by the book’s logical and pedagogical flaws. But in spite of this, this text offers a decent introduction to quantum mechanics for students already familiar with the basic concepts of the theory.
Brodal, Per (). The Central Nervous System (Structure and Function) (Fourth Edition). Oxford University Press. China. ISBN 978-0-19-538115-3 (Hardcover) (English) (591 pages)
[Haven't read yet.]
Burcham, W.E.; Jobes, M (). Nuclear and Particle Physics. Pearson Education. Eastbourne. ISBN 0-582-45088-8 (Paperback) (English) (752 pages)
Could probably be more clear at some points during the development of the theory.
Chen, Raymond (). The Old New Thing (Practical Development Throughout the Evolution of Windows). Addision-Wesley. United States of America (2006). ISBN 978-0-321-44030-3 (Paperback) (English) (517 pages)
Such an enjoyment to read!

Darling, R.W.R. (). Differential Forms and Connections. Cambridge University Press. United States of America (2009). ISBN 978-0-521-46800-8 (Paperback) (English) (250 pages)
This is an accessible text on exterior algebra and differential forms. It might be seen as somewhat "too" formal at times, though.
D'Inverno, Ray (). Introducing Einstein's Relativity. Oxford University Press. United Kingdom. ISBN 978-0-19-859686-8 (Paperback) (English) (383 pages)
A rather decent introduction to general relativity, but the introduction given to differential geometry and tensor calculus is pretty useless. If you don't know any of the mathematical background, you might want to read e.g. the first half of Frankel prior to d'Inverno.
Jorfeldt, Lennart; Pahlm, Olle (). EKG (Grunder, handledning vid tolkning och 101 kliniska fall). Studentlitteratur. Poland (2011). ISBN 978-91-44-07147-3 (Unusual binding) (Swedish) (366 pages)

This is a (the?) bible of (introductory, but rather far-reaching) mathematical physics. Know all this, and you know most of it! Beware, however, that it is a tough endeavour to read the entire book as self-study.
Freedman, Roger A.; Kaufmann III, William J. (). Universe (Eighth Edition). W. H. Freeman and Company. United States of America (2007). ISBN 978-0-7167-8584-2 (Paperback) (English) (759 pages)

Original title: Analyse de Fourier et applications: Filtrage, Calcul numérique, Ondelettes; Fourier et applications: Exercices corrigés
This is a very pleasant read. The text is conveniently organised in 42 small lessons. This is a rigorous and careful treatment of Fourier analysis.
Gawkrodger, David J.; Ardern-Jones, Michael R. (). Dermatology (An Illustrated Colour Text) (Fifth Edition). Churchill Livingstone (Elsevier), Illustrated Colour Text. China (2015). ISBN 978-0-7020-4449-6 (Paperback) (English) (140 pages)
Pretty nice. Like the smell of the paper.
Gurtin, Morton E. (). An Introduction to Continuum Mechanics. Academic Press, Mathematics in Science and Engineering (Vol 158) (158). United Kingdom (≈2009). ISBN 978-0-12-309750-7 (English) (266 pages)
A very elegant and clear text. An excellent introduction to continuum mechanics.
Hall, John E. (). Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology (Twelfth Edition). Saunders Elsevier. United States of America. ISBN 978-1-4160-4574-8 (Hardcover) (English) (1100 pages)
A great and comprehensive text on physiology. Compared to Sand et al., this text is generally more detailed and covers more topics. However, if you read the book the way books are supposed to be read (that is, from the very first to the very last page, with no major breaks in between), you'll notice that some concepts are introduced repeatedly. In addition, whereas you learn some basic anatomy from Sand et al., in Guyton & Hall you are assumed to know basic anatomy. [Disclaimer: This text contains numerous references to animal experiments, often very extensive experiments, in a variety of mammals, such as dogs, rats, and primates. Although I appreciate the vast scientific gain from such experiments, I generally do not approve of them.]
Heald, Mark A.; Marion, Jerry B. (). Classical Electromagnetic Radiation (Third Edition). Thomson Learning. United States of America. ISBN 0-03-097277-9 (Hardcover) (English) (572 pages)
Could probably be more clear at some points in the development of the theory.
Engdahl, Horace (). Den sista grisen. Albert Bonniers förlag. Tyskland (2016). ISBN 978-91-0-015499-8 (Hardcover) (Swedish) (278 pages)
Det här är en bok som innehåller en blandning av reflektioner kring livet, samhället i dag och i går, det sociala spelet, kärleken, manligt och kvinnligt och åldrandet, av varierande djupsinnighet och igenkännandefaktor, dels i form av en stor samling korta texter, dels i form av en scenuppsättning. Man bör inte läsa texterna som absoluta sanningar eller lämpliga precisa ordboksdefinitioner, utan som alternativa infallsvinklar och spontana reflektioner som man ofta inser med förvånansvärd träffsäkerhet stämmer överens med en stor del av alla faktiska situationer. Akademiledamoten vill inte att allt skall tolkas bokstavligt, utan vill väcka tankar och ge läsaren nya infall. I många fall tycker jag att Engdahls observationer är smarta, korrekta och välskrivna, men i en del fall skulle jag vilja tillägga ett "Men..." efter en utläggning som förvisso känns rätt till viss del, men som för mig inte verkar se hela bilden. Det finns också enstaka fragment som jag har svårt att svälja. Många av reflektionerna – om inte alla – torde ha inspirerats av någon företeelse i författarens liv eller i samhället i stort som Engdahl tagit fasta på, och i de fall jag inte kan urskilja fragmentets förträfflighet, kan det bero på att jag helt enkelt inte själv träffat på den företeelsen i mitt liv. Det bör poängteras att jag inte förstår precis allt i boken, alla referenser till de stora gamla författarna, men få torde vara lika bildade som den tidigare ständige sekreteraren i sådana frågor. Man kan också fråga sig varför Engdahl skrev boken – dess syfte är inte uppenbart, och det förefaller högst troligt att Engdahl, om han ville, skulle kunna skriva mycket tydligare än så här om hans mål var att argumentera för en given ståndpunkt. Men förmodligen är bokens syfte mest att väcka till eftertanke och kanske vill Horace bara dela med sig av sina idéer.
Engdahl, Horace (). Meteorer & Cigaretten efteråt. Bonnier Pocket. Litauen (2016). ISBN 978-91-7429-287-9 (Swedish) (271 pages)
Består av Meteorer från 1999 och Cigaretten efteråt från 2011.
Horn, Roger A.; Johnson, Charles R. (). Matrix Analysis (Second Edition). Cambridge University Press. United States of America (2013). ISBN 978-0-521-83940-2 (Hardcover) (English) (643 pages)

Very good. It actually teaches more than just the language.
Kittel, Charles (). Introduction to Solid State Physics (Eighth Edition). John Wiley & Sons, Inc.. United States of America. ISBN 978-0-471-41526-8 (Hardcover) (English) (680 pages)
Not a very clear text; some parts are very difficult to follow, because the author 'forgets' to explain the concepts used.
Kittel, Charles; Kroemer, Herbert (). Thermal Physics (Second Edition). W. H. Freeman and Company. United States of America. ISBN 978-0-7167-1088-2 (Hardcover) (English) (473 pages)
Good, but not perfectly clear all the time.

Generally a good text, but it contains a few misprints. The worst one is found on page 38, where it is claimed that renin converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II. This is plain wrong. Renin converts angiotensinogen to angiotensin I, and the latter is converted to angiotensin II by ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme).

Panton, Ronald L. (). Incompressible Flow (Third Edition). Wiley. United States of America. ISBN 978-0-471-26122-3 (Hardcover) (English) (821 pages)
Goodish. This is clearly not a book written by a mathematician, nor is is written for mathematicians. Lack of rigor and elegance is examplified by misuse of mathematical symbols, concepts, and logically invalid wording. Furthermore, the text lacks a distinct direction and has quite a few misprints in it. Despite these shortcomings, the text contains numerous interesting examples and covers a vast number of topics in fluid mechanics.

En mycket trevlig bok. Väldigt vacker bindning och spännande innehåll. Ett måste för alla som är intresserade av svenska språket och Svenska Akademien och dess ordlista. Boken hade emellertid mått bra av lite extra korrekturläsning före tryckning (t.ex. s. 29, 56, 58, 91, 132).

Possibly the best physics book I have ever read.
Alberts, Bruce; Johnson, Alexander; Lewis, Julian; Morgan, David; Raff, Martin; Roberts, Keith; Walter, Peter (). Molecular Biology of the Cell (Sixth Edition). Garland Science. United States of America (2015). ISBN 978-0-8153-4432-2 (Hardcover) (English) (1342 pages)
This is an amazing book. The cover is very beautiful, as is the typography inside the book. I love the blue headings. The text is divided into small, very easy-to-read sections that are skilfully summarised by their (long) headings. The subject of molecular cell biology is extremely fascinating and this book presents it wonderfully. The book contains a large amount of excellent illustrations, 3D renderings, and real micrographs, often large and very colourful. More often than not, you can review a chapter only by looking at the headings and the images. (However, there is an instance of incorrect use of semicolon on page 83. And another one on page 1209.)

This introductory book, suitable for first-term physics students, covers almost every area of classical and modern physics – and for the most part, it does so excellently. Of course, the book should be read from the very first to the very last page, as all books should be read. (m ≈ 2.92 kg)
