Reviews

From the reviews:

"The book provides a well-organized and comprehensive treatment of static analysis in various topics … . The concepts and applications are well presented; applications include both basic and advanced levels. Worked out examples nicely illustrate concepts; figures and tables are clear and help with understanding the concepts. … Each chapter has a large number of assigned problems, helping readers to understand the material. … very well written work and a welcome addition to the literature of engineering mechanics. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through professionals." (M. G. Prasad, CHOICE, Vol. 44 (10), June, 2007)
