Lev Landau was a Physicist. And I really liked his book on Quantum Mechanics.
Landau's books[0] are very famous among advanced undergrads and grad students of Physics in India.
Landau also measured the genius of his contemporaries[1]. He gave himself a 1.5, and 1 to Schrodinger, Satyen Bose, etc. Eisnstein was 0.5. (Lower the better)

He also won a Nobel Prize in Physics in 1962.
