I am currently a student studying computer science at a University in Wisconsin, expecting to graduate Spring 2025. I have taken a fair number of computer science courses and math courses, but I have found it much more rewarding to self-study. Below is a non-comprehensive list of books I have read and recommend to those interested in machine learning.

These were the most impactful math and machine learning books that I read early on. For those interested in reading them, I would recommend first reading Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and TensorFlow to get a good understanding of what machine learning is all about and how to use modern machine learning tools. I would then start reading the math books to gain a strong understanding of linear algebra, probability, and calculus, prior to returning to the more theory based machine learning books. Once all of these have been read and well understood, it becomes evident what is of interest to the reader and thus their paths may diverge, but I think these recommendations are non-controversial.
