Newtonian mechanics is taught as part of every physics program for several reasons. It is a towering intellectual achievement; it has diverse applications; and it provides a context for teaching modelling and problem solving. This text gives equal prominence to all three missions.

Newtonian mechanics is a towering intellectual achievement that doesn’t need to be daunting. This text will walk you through introductory topics all the way to some advanced material, making it the perfect desk reference. The problem-solving aspects are fully developed, showing you how problems are approached and bringing out the ways of going about constructing a model and solution.

Raine Derek : Derek Raine, PhD, is director of the Centre for Interdisciplinary Science in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Leicester. His research has ranged over relativity, quantum field theory, astrophysics, and more recently, biophysics and complex systems.
