1. Edition - January 2005 189.- Euro 2005. 560 Pages, Hardcover ISBN-10: 0-471-40198-6 ISBN-13: 978-0-471-40198-8 - John Wiley & Sons
Short description Students often find that a precise and mathematical treatment of dynamics is difficult to comprehend. Offering a very personalized presentation, this book makes the material as accessible as possible and actually fun to learn. It presents mechanics as a relatively uncluttered "science." Tongue explains how to apply the concepts to realistic situations, breaking complex problems into manageable parts. In addition, he includes computation throughout the text that is in line with perceptions of what competent engineers should know.
