The Theory of the Top: Volume III. Perturbations: Astronomical and Geophysical Applications is the third installment in a series of four self-contained English translations of the classic and definitive treatment of rigid body motion.

The Theory of the Top was originally presented by Felix Klein as an 1895 lecture at Göttingen University that was broadened in scope and clarified as a result of collaboration with Arnold Sommerfeld. Graduate students and researchers interested in theoretical and applied mechanics will find this series of books a thorough and insightful account. Other volumes in the series include the Introduction to the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top, Development of a Theory of the Heavy Symmetric Top, and Technical Applications of the Theory of the Top.
Rezensionen
From the reviews:
"This third volume is devoted to the investigation of the motion of a symmetric top and is unique in that it complements the results of the previous volumes, which were of a theoretical nature, by results that are of great interest in the investigation of applied aspects of the motion of symmetric bodies. ... is of great value to specialists in analytical mechanics." (Gennady Victorovich Gorr, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2013)
