Elementary Newtonian Mechanics -- The Principles of Canonical Mechanics -- The Mechanics of Rigid Bodies -- Relativistic Mechanics -- Geometric Aspects of Mechanics -- Stability and Chaos -- Continuous Systems
Summary
"This updated and revised fourth edition covers all topics in mechanics from elementary Newtonian mechanics, canonical and rigid body mechanics to relativistic mechanics and nonlinear dynamics." "The book contains numerous problems with complete solutions, and some practical examples. This will be appreciated in particular by students using the text to accompany lectures on mechanics. The book ends with some historical remarks on important pioneers in mechanics."--Jacket
