For my whole career, now 40 years, I could not get past a certain conceptual issue with tensors: namely the difference between a covariant and a contravariant tensor. Do you believe that this item violates a copyright?
Perhaps they are quite incapable of writing clearly for those who want to explore mathematics as interested amateurs.
This book actually describes the "geometric" difference between co and contra variant tensors.
It is a gem.
This book puts you at the graduate level fast, again this book is like cheating. Why should this be: do these writers consider their subject too difficult, tedious or irrelevant for the general reader?

Books on mathematics are almost without exception written by mathematicians for mathematicians, so that the latter can move onto the next level of study; they are seldom, if ever, written for the general reader. This book would have put me so far ahead, why did someone not do it earlier. I have a BS in physics from many years ago, so not too bad on calculus and vectors, but never studied tensors. One of these items ships sooner than the other. Metrics. Audio podcasts give students the opportunity to hear important concepts in the book explained by the author.
