Rezensionen

"With many new additions, from quaternions to Lie transforms, the core virtue of the book remains the same as in the first edition: by making the physics precise enough to run on a computer, the authors open the door to a deeper understanding of classical reality, with the promise of a deeper understanding of all reality." - Piet Hut, Professor of Astrophysics, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, New Jersey
