Basic course on theoretical physics. 1: Classical mechanics

From MaRDI portal





The book is the first in the series of 7 books covering the university level course in physics [for the review of the 4th ed. see Zbl 0956.70500]. As the author points out, this is an introductory first-semester student-oriented text (to a lesser extent the book is oriented to professor). In the reviewer's opinion, the author succeeded in his intention to make an easy-to-read and yet high-level introductory text. The presentation is clear, and each chapter is supplemented with a problem section which also contains control questions. Going to the contents, in the first chapter the author presents a careful selection of mathematical topics. Chapter 2 treats single material point, chapter 3 gives an analysis of system of material points, and chapter 4 examines the motion of a rigid body. The book is recommended to both physics and engineering students.
