About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
BULLETIN OF MATHEMATICS BOOKS
"Concepts are presented at a measure pace and many useful and important examples are provided. Along the way, advice is offered on solving problems in mechanics, and common errors are pointed out. For students who want to truly understand and analyze problems in dynamics, this primer is well worth having."
MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
"The book is carefully written and provides a good introduction to the subject."
From the reviews of the second edition:
“The main objective of this primer is to reduce the gap between the theoretical framework and an undergraduate student’s ability to solve typical problems of undergraduate dynamics. Well-selected problems illustrate a systematic four-step methodology for solving problems from the dynamics of single particles, of systems of particles, of a single rigid body, and of a system of particles and rigid bodies. … At the end of each chapter some illustrative examples were added.” (Franz Selig, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1201, 2011)
