"James R. Barber has written a fascinating and inspiring book that highlights analytical solutions while not veering too far from engineering applications. This book will undoubtedly be useful at different levels as a textbook for courses on contact mechanics and tribology. For many years to come,this book will serve as an invaluable reference guide for researchers in contact mechanics and related fields." (Ivan I. Argatov, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2018)
"It represents both an outstanding reference book and a didactically excellent prepared textbook suitable for teaching master's degree candidates and PHD students. ... The author provides a wealth of alternative and elegant analytical methods. ... 'Contact Mechanics' by James R. Barber will greatly facilitate the work of many PHD students and prospective researchers, since the widely scattered research contributions of the last 30 years have now been summarized in one specialized book." (Markus Heß, frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, September, 2018)
"A much simpler book, but very pleasant and never trivial, which however competes with many other books in the same area, including some in Italian. ... a must in the library of any researcher in the flourishing area of contact mechanics, and a possible choice for advanced courses in the subject (but also, for its clarity, it could even serve the purpose of less advanced courses)." (M. Ciavarella, Meccanica, Vol. 53, 2018)
"The monograph gives a concise presentation of the various analytic methods in contact mechanics and will thus serve as a comprehensive reference for researchers working in associated fields or practitioners aiming to get a deeper understanding of contact mechanics. ... 'Contact Mechanics' by James Barber is an excellent work of a brilliant and passionate writer, teacher and scientist and a must in the library of any professional tribologist." (Valentin L. Popov and Emanuel Willert, Tribology Letters, Vol. 66 (73), 2018)
