    Good luck with that! If you ever have questions on education in Moscow or Russian language, send me a message.

      Sure thing!

      By the way, do you know where I might order Lanlifshitz in Russian if I ever decided to? Is there like some kind of Russian amazon that might deliver to Greece?

      Also I can never figure out when o is pronounced o or a lol

        There is a russian site called Ozon that sell those books and it says they deliver outside of Russia. Also my SO has strong opinions on which volumes are good and which are not so good.

        Also I can never figure out when o is pronounced o or a lol

        It's always pronounced as o when it's stressed but outside of that it seems like there are no rules. It's like English spelling, you just have to remember it. So just pronounce it as o and people will understand you. You will learn eventually after enough exposure.

          No like 😡

          Also my SO has strong opinions on which volumes are good and which are not so good.

          Which does she think are good and which aren't? I've only read some of the StatMech book, the entire Classical mechanics book and some of the Classical Fields book and I liked all 3. Idk about the rest.

            Good: Field theory (2) Statistical physics (5)

            Supposedly good: Hydrodynamics

            Not so good: Quantum mechanics Classical mechanics Quantum field theory

            Even not so good ones solve problems on basic level that you'd have to look for old papers.

              Well I liked the classical mechanics one although I do agree it is not as good as the other two I looked at. Also yeah I can imagine the QM-QFT ones maybe are a little bit too old to be very good.

          Also HOLY SHIT IT'S LIKE ONLY 7 EUROS

          Hope import fees don't drive the price through the ceiling, but it's not like I wouldn't have to pay those for the English books.
