Summary: Indispensable for anyone in mathematics
Comment: This book is a list of about 3000 recommended math books, mostly at the undergraduate or early graduate level. The list is divided up into 26 major categories (such as "Calculus and Precalculus") and subcategories (for the Calculus category, the subcategories are School Mathematics, Precalculus, Elementary Calculus, Advanced Calculus, and Supplementary resources). One of the benefits of this books is simply the classification scheme, which gives the reader a good idea of the different topics on which large numbers of books have been published. The major categories are not limited to topics in which there are traditional math courses. For example, some of the categories are "Recreational Mathematics", "Education", "Applications to Life Sciences", etc. The contents of the lists were decided by a committee of active and knowledgeable mathematicians. Books which are considered "essential" are given one, two, or three stars based on their importance for inclusion in an undergraduate library. It should be noted that the list was not intended to be recommendations for textbooks. The books were chosen primarily for their content, not for how easy they are to learn from, or how appropriate the exercises were. But if you're looking for a college-level math book on almost any subject within mathematics, this book is the place to start.
