Although, I am not a book lover, but Nidhi, Vrinda, Manikanta asked to take part in this Book Bucket. Here is the list of books (In no order) which affected my life and were closest to me. 1. I.E Irodov,University Physics, Conceptual Physics, Conceptual Physics-Paul Hewite: Books because of which I fall in love with physics. 2. Astronomy Manual (IIT Kanpur, goo.gl/kVvtqU), Sky and Telescope: I was one of the editors to a guide by Astronomy Club, “Stargazer’s Handbook” in Summers 2010. This and many other astronomy books changed my life back then. 3. Limca Book of Records 2013, Asia Book of Records: I haven’t read them, but definitely, these were the game changer for me. One of my finest memories. 4. Observatory Dome PD-10 Manual: Part of one of the biggest initiative by the club in last 39 years. 5. Oxford Pictorial Dictionary, Kids Encyclopedia: Bought these in Book Fair, Pragati Maidan, New Delhi. Among the most read(looking at the pictures ;)) books by me. 6. The Feynman Lectures on Physics, A Brief History of time: No comments required 7. Russian books at kinder garden, Class I NCERT books. My education started in Moscow, Russia. Those were the days, when I was part of one of the best education system so far encountered. 8. Chacha Chawdhary, Pinky, Billu: Evergreen Comics 9. Mahabahrata, Wonderland of Numbers-Shakuntala Devi: Just reading few lines of them, takes you to the whole new World. 10. Dynamical Systems, Modern Cosmology, Introduction to Gravity Waves: Last but not the least, few reference books of IITK curriculum. Among those who are closest to me and affected my life, I would request them to share their experience with us (Irrespective to who have participated before). Ankita, Mayank, Piyush, Dhriti, Niharika, Neha, Varun, Ajinkya, Neha, Lovish, Pranav, Anu, Akanksha, Dibya, Vijin, Manjeet, Puneet, Monika, Yash, Anoop. There are many others but I cant tag all in single post. This doesnt mean they are not among my closest.
