From the Publisher:
Conceptually accurate and error-free problem material.
Careful, step-by-step presentation followed in each unit of each chapter. Each unit can be covered in one class.
Artwork carefully drawn and located next to corresponding material.
Through the extensive use of free-body diagrams in Statics and effective force diagrams in Dynamics, students are given a more intuitive understanding of key concepts.
The use of color in this 4-color text helps students to better distinguish between vectors: red equals acceleration and forces (applied and effective), green equals velocity, and blue equals position.
The Sixth Edition features Beer and Johnston's famous Sample Problems, over 3,000 homework problems (95% new), and new Solving Problems on Your Own sections which provide students with strategies and tips for problem solving.
Many computer problems relevant to the design process have been added to the end of chapter problem sets.
Working Model(r) 3D Simulations CD-ROM. This powerful software supplement contains the following: Working Model 3D Student Edition Text (a 3D engine/viewer not available with any other Statics and Dynamics text); 43 Working Model Simulations (also in 3D) based on Sample Problems and Exercises from the books; 43 videos (AVIs) of the simulations and an HTML page; Working Model Tutorial/User's Guide.
Interactive Statics and Dynamics Tutorial. Always available with the 6th Edition, this tutorial, which expands on key concepts from the texts, has been enhanced and is now available on CD-ROM. For each concept there is a clear, physical elaboration; examples; quizzes for drill and practice; and cross-references to the texts.
FE Exam Interactive Review for Statics and Dynamics. This review includes 100 fully interactive sample questions from the statics and dynamics portions of the FE exam. Hints for solution are given and correct answers explained.
The Statics Problems Supplement contains over 500 new homework problems arranged by chapter. Most chapter problem sets include several problems set up expressly for computer solution. A complete Instructor's Solutions Manual will be available to help instructors use the new material for homework or testing.
About the Author:
Born in France and educated in France and Switzerland, Ferdinand Beer held an M.S. degree from the Sorbonne and an Sc.D. degree in theoretical mechanics from the University of Geneva. He came to the United States after serving in the French army during the early part of World War II and taught for four years at Williams College in the Williams-MIT joint arts and engineering program. Following his service at Williams College, Beer joined the faculty of Lehigh University, where he taught for thirty-seven years. He held several positions, including the University Distinguished Professors Chair and Chairman of the Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics Department. In 1995, Beer was awarded an honorary Doctor of Engineering degree by Lehigh University.

Born in Philadelphia, Russ holds a B.S. degree in civil engineering from the University of Delaware and an Sc.D. degree in the field of structural engineering from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He taught at Lehigh University and Worchester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) before joining the faculty of the University of Connecticut where he held the position of Chairman of the Civil Engineering Department and taught for twenty-six years. In 1991 Russ received the Outstanding Civil Engineer Award from the Connecticut Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers.

David Mazurek holds a B.S. in ocean engineering and an M.S. in civil engineering from the Florida Institute of Technology, and a Ph.D. in civil engineering from the University of Connecticut. Employed by the General Dynamics Corporation Electric Boat Division for five years, he provided submarine construction support and conducted engineering design and analysis associated with pressure hull and other structures. He then taught for one year at Lafayette College prior to joining the civil engineering faculty at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, where he has been since 1990. Mazurek is currently a member of the American Railway Engineering & Maintenance-of-way Association Committee 15, and the American Society of Civil Engineers Committee on Blast, Shock, and Vibratory Effects. He has also worked with the Federal Railroad Administration on their bridge-inspection training program. He is a licensed professional engineer in Connecticut and Pennsylvania.

Elliot holds a B.S. degree in engineering and an M.E. degree, both from Cornell University. He has focused his scholarly activities on professional service and teaching, and he was recognized for this work in 1992 when the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) awarded him the Ben C. Sparks Medal for his contributions to mechanical engineering and mechanical engineering technology education and for service to the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). Elliot taught for thirty-two years, including twenty-nine years at Penn State where he was recognized with awards for both teaching and advising.
