Classical Mechanics

"Classical Mechanics by T Kibble and F Berkshire is tailor-made for budding theoreticians. It lays the groundwork for relativity and quantum theory, quickly progressing beyond Newtonian mechanics to the alternative formulations of Joseph Lagrange and William Hamilton." New Scientist "... the student who requires a good book on the older aspects of Classical Mechanics together with a brief introduction to newer ideas will find the third edition useful." Contemporary Physics "This volume, by Kibble and Berkshire, has proved to be a successful book ... the written content and presentation are all excellent." European Journal of Physics
