Review text

This is an excellently written tutorial paper which demonstrates how the basic governing equations of continuum physics can be derived from the first principles. Starting from the equations for solids and fluids, the author enriches the theory by incorporating thermal and electromagnetic effects. A brief sketch of qualitative and numerical methods for study of partial differential equations concludes the paper. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0955.00011].
