Physics: recently picked up Walter Lewin's "For the Love of Physics" and it's a masterpiece. Didn't get the chance to finish it because of the pandemic and it got locked in the office but it appears he's managed to cram in an entire university course in one book.
I'm not sure if best but certainly the most enjoyable and entertaining: For the love of physics. I absolutely envy people who have been in Walter Lewin's classes.
