About this title

Synopsis:

This book provides a concise and compact introductory text to Newtonian Mechanics at an advanced level. It uses modern concepts such as the equivalence principle to simplify solving basic mechanics problems which makes the solutions more understandable.

Review:

From the reviews:

“The textbook is an introductory course into classical mechanics. ... The aim is to define the key notions of Newtonian mechanics and to show how to solve problems of standard difficulty and sometimes a bit more difficult ones. The book has ten chapters and an appendix. ... The book is self-consistent and can be recommended to teachers and for independent study of classical mechanics.” (Irina Alexandrovna Bolgrabskaya, zbMATH, Vol. 1284, 2014)
