I have spent so much time with this book growing up. It was THE Book to solve to get the bragging rights that you know your physics.

For REAL bragging rights, you had to solve Krotov :)

Bukhantsov was the real deal. Higher than Krotov

Never heard of it. Will check it out. Thank you!

PS: One of the highest points during my college prep days was when I managed to solve this kinematics problem from Krotov where the condition for a ball bouncing in a well to get out depends on the ratio of some parameters to be co prime. Good times.

Ah I still ‘see’ the tiny fonts when I think about the book..
