There is no such thing as "the best textbooks", just "best textbooks" for each person. http://www.ted.com/talks/malcolm_gladwell_on_spaghetti_sauce.html http:/

  While everyone has different tastes and needs, there's no doubt that some books are better than others. Not to belittle Gladwell too much - I enjoyed the talk and it's a valuable perspective on market segmentation - but using a pop science author talking about spaghetti sauce as a source is hardly an argument to dismiss the notion of quality.

    Quality is important, but still subjective. Not to say this won't be a great curated list. Anyways, I should have known better than to just throw that out there. My bad.
