Geared toward advanced undergraduate and graduate students of physics, this text advances from a brief introduction to a three-part treatment covering particles of spin zero, particles of one-half, and collision and radiation processes. 1963 edition.
Rich in practical examples, this book provides a refreshing contrast to the often abstract discussions found in classical mechanics literature. It covers a broad spectrum of topics, including small oscillations, bifurcations, and rigid body dynamics, while also delving into Lagrangian, Hamiltonian, and relativistic systems. Additionally, it features concise chapters on perturbation and field theories, making it a comprehensive resource for both students and enthusiasts of classical mechanics.
