About this product

Product Information

For 40 years, Kleppner and Kolenkow's classic text has introduced students to the principles of mechanics. Now brought up to date, this revised and improved second edition is ideal for classical mechanics courses for first- and second-year undergraduates with foundation skills in mathematics. The book retains all the features of the first edition, including numerous worked examples, challenging problems and extensive illustrations, and has been restructured to improve the flow of ideas. It now features new examples taken from recent developments, such as laser slowing of atoms, exoplanets and black holes; a 'Hints, Clues and Answers' section for the end-of-chapter problems to support student learning; and a solutions manual for instructors at www.cambridge.org/kandk.

Serious introduction to Mechanics
Fantastic book. If you're looking for a serious text that takes you through all of basic mechanics without cutting any mathematical corners, this is it. In particular, the problems have been very thoughtfully chosen to really test your understanding of each concept. Apparently this was the text book for an MIT mechanics course nicknamed "Mechanics for Masochists". It's an introduction not in the sense that it is easy but in the sense that it doesn't assume prior knowledge.
