Caracteristici

  • The classic approach of this leading text has been revised and updated without increasing the overall length of the book.
  • NEW - NEW! Chapter 11 on classical chaos theory builds from the Hamilton-Jacobi theory to introduce nonlinear dynamics and fractal dimensionality as it relates to classical mechanics.
  • REVISED! Chapter 7 now presents special relativity using the standard real metric (in lieu of the complex Minkowski space) and coordinate-free notation, and includes a brief introduction to the concepts of general relativity.
  • UPDATED! A section on the Euler and Lagrange exact solutions to the three-body problem has been added to Chapter 3.
  • UPDATED! A section on the damped driven oscillator as an example of the workings of the Josephson junction has been added to Chapter 6.
  • REVISED! Chapter 12 on Canonical Perturbation Theory has been streamlined and the mathematics has been simplified.
  • NEW - NEW! Approximately 45 new problems, mostly in Chapters One through Eight and Eleven.
  • Problem sets are now helpfully divided into "Derivations" and "Exercises."
