But Kailash Publications book for IIT JAM

None 22nd Aug, 2017
You can consider below names -

1.Mechanics by Hon and Puri

2.Thermodynamics by Sierce and Jemanshki

3.Optics by Ajay Ghator

4.Concepts of modern physics by Artoon Biner

5.Waves and application by Bajaz

6.Electro magnetic theory by Grifiths

7. Mathematics models in physics by Boss

8. Mathematical Methods In The Physical Sciences: Mary L Boas

9. Advanced Engineering Mathematics: Erwin Kreyszig

10. Quantum Physics: H.C. Verma

11. Nuclear Physics: D.C. Tayal

12. Solid State Physics, Devices and Electronics

13. Solid State Physics: S.O. Pillai

14. Solid State Physics: Puri & Babbar etc.



Note : As there are many books available in the market so better to go for standard ones also go for the preparation material which makes all your concepts clear and strong.



Hope this helps!!!
