Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This two-volume work by a pair of the greatest physicists of all time features essays with many examples, derivations, and topics not discussed in more recent studies. It covers the principles and theories of fundamental branches of classical physics for a survey of mechanics comprising material on hydrodynamics, elasticity, potential theory, and what is now termed standard mechanics. The first volume presents a detailed discussion of kinematics, strain, generalized coordinates, dynamical laws and principles, observation and experiment as the basis for principles of mechanics, and the chief instruments used for measurement of time, space, and force. Volume II, a detailed examination of dynamics, explores statics of a particle, attraction, and statics of solids and liquids. Unabridged republication of the last revised edition (1912).
