to give an example, a lot of undergrad physics is proving equations from first principles but usually years later people forget the proofs (maybe equations too) and just remember the intuition, then look up the proofs/equations on wikipedia as needed. but there's not a lot of writing that focuses on just teaching the intuition without getting too deeply into the math. feyman's "QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter" is a good counterexample.
