Graduate student in physics. Studying Green's functions is slippery. But here is a book that will allow you to trace far enough down the rabbit hole to the very roots of a subject. There are enough examples for sure, and as often as possible the authors discuss information in the context of physical phenomena. Relations of Green's functions to electrostatics is made, and a brief discussion is done on the role they play in the scattering problems of quantum mechanics ie the Born Approximation. Must have.
