DESCRIPTION:
John Taylor has brought to his new book, Classical Mechanics, all of the clarity and insight that made his introduction to Error Analysis a best-selling text.
"Very good for self-study" according to Regressist. I strongly recommend this book, it is well written, clear, without typographical errors, with many excercises which you can really do after having studied the text. Some people say it is verbose: sometimes it is true, BUT when you study alone it is a lot better to have more rather than less explanations. I wish there was a similar book on quantum mechanics. The binding is good and this adds to the good feeling of studying it. This book should become soon a bestseller. I suggest o. "Good for Self-Teaching" according to Aaa. Unlike many of the other reviewers, who have either learned or taught from this book in a class setting, I read and worked through large parts of this book on my own. This review is therefore most relevant for someone who wants to do the same.John Taylor's textbook "Classical Mechanics" is an excellent textbook for someone interested in learning more advanced mechanics on his or her own. His writing is clear but not too wordy and this is very important for understanding the diffi. This came in perfect condition. The author is really easy and even This came in perfect condition. The author is really easy and even interesting to follow. He explains things simply and cleanly. Of course, not every subject is covered in the utmost detail so you may have to visit your professor for some specific questions. The problems are challenging but always possible. (Work in groups or ask your professor/TA if you get stuck). This is one of my favourite mechanics books.
JOHN R. He is also the author of three best-selling textbooks, including Introduction to Error Analysis. TAYLOR is Professor of Physics and Presidential Teaching Scholar at the University of Colorado, where he has won numerous teaching awards, served as Associate Editor of the American Journal of Physics, and received an Emmy Award for his television series called 'Physics 4 Fun'.
The clarity and readability of the book is so much better than anything else on the market, that I confidently predict this book will soon be the most widely used book on the subject in all American universities, and probably Canadian and European universities also." -- American Journal of Physics Book Review "American Journal of Physics, April 2004" .
