Book Overview
This concise and authoritative book emphasizes basic principles and problem formulation. It illustrates both the cohesiveness of the relatively few fundamental ideas in this area and the great variety of problems these ideas solve. All of the problems address principles and procedures inherent in the design and anlysis of engineering structures and mechanical systems, with many of the problems referring explicitly to design considerations.

OK book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book explains the concepts very carefully. However, it jumps topic to topic without a smooth trancision. Examples are very elementary, but the problems at the end of each chapter gets tedious quickly. Prefer if the hard problems are approached with more examples. Biggest down fall I see is that there are no answers at the back for any problems.

Awesome!

The book uses good explanations, clear examples, real world situations, and good homework problems. I had one of the worst teachers on earth for engineering dynamics, and this book was the only way that I got through the class.
Very solid and important text
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Very few books provide a solid material like this one (Beer & Johnston's is an excellent one too). In fact I have become interested in mechanics after I was Introduced to this text for the 1st time in 1984. Recently, I started to collect and work all the editions of this book. This text requires a very skilful instructor that can present the material in it in way worthy of this text. please do not hate this text if you really want unsurpass knowledge in mechanics, because there are many "engineering mechanics" texts around you that teach nothing.
The best book

Simply the best. I really love Prof. Meriam's Books (Both Statics and Dynamics) since 1985!
