Snap. I am also a physicist trying to learn math.
In my case it's:
- Introduction to Analysis (Mattuck)
- Elementary Differential Geometry (Pressley)
both chosen because they have solutions in the book, which I find important for self-study.
Also just got (hot off the presses)
Visual Differential Geometry and Forms (Needham)
Looks fantastic!
Topology is next on the list...
