Consider Deep Learning by Ian Goodfellow. Recommended by 10 sources.

“Equation-forward introduction covering probability, linear-algebra foundations, optimization methods, model families, and common architectures. Sections trade short conceptual summaries for formal derivations and algorithm descriptions; occasional practical notes appear but runnable code is rare. Most useful for building a technical picture of why methods behave as they do and for informed follow-up experimentation. Main limitation: dense notation and extended proofs demand slow, focused study, so readers seeking hands-on walkthroughs will be left wanting.”
