The book is a well written introduction to the dynamics of mechanical systems of rigid bodies and continuous systems. The book is addressed to students of mechanics. The first chapter deals with the principles of mechanics (d'Alembert, Jourdain, the equations of Lagrange and Hamilton). Linear discrete systems are treated within the next chapter. Techniques for linearization and investigation of stability are described. Chapter three describes continuous systems (beams), approximation techniques (Ritz- and Galerkin-methods) and gives the reader a guide for treating hybrid systems. Methods of nonlinear mechanics in view of vibrations and their stability behaviour are to be found in Chapter 4. Students will enjoy this introduction because of a large number of examples, computed up to the end, and may get an imagination of nonlinear effects in vibration theory by chapter 5, giving a heuristical overview on some well known vibration mechanisms.
