Ask HN: Best books to learn fundamentals of two dimensional animation?

I am interested in 2d animation as a content creator and game developer. I am not looking to learn how to use a software. Rather how to animate. From the first principles. Thank you!

Richard Williams' The Animator's Survival Kit [1] is the standard recommendation, I believe - I've also seen animation courses recommend Preston Blair's Cartoon Animation [2]
