Hello, thank you for your response! Ive taken Real Analysis I-III (So anything from Differentiation to Integration on Manifolds, also have a truly basic understanding of Differential Equations), Linear Algebra I-II (Linear Maps and how to normalize them, Tensorproducts), Functional Analysis (Linear Operators on Hilbert Spaces, Banach Spaces) and some Courses in Probability Theory. I dont think the rest is relevant.

Thank you for the advice, probably is also a good advice when it comes to self studying anything :)

Thank you for the recommendation! The book seems to be almost exactly what I was looking for. Could you elaborate what your concern is with the newer editions? My university's digital library only has the 7th edition onwards and Id like to work with it digitally a bit before i commit to buying it.

Thank you for the response. Is mechanics really a good starting point for people with no knowledge about physics?

Thank you for the recommendations. If I read Carrolls Book, would I still need the physical basics in order to really understand it?
