Rezensionen

From the reviews of the first edition:

"The book takes a classical approach to the development of the methods of analytical dynamics. ... the book contains a large number of examples ... and most of them are quite instructive. Many examples are worked out in full detail in the text, and an even greater number of additional examples is given in the form of problems (without solutions). ... People who teach mechanics courses may find this collection of examples quite useful." (Volker Perlick, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1087 (13), 2006)
