There can be few books on mathematical mechanics as famous as this, a work that forms a comprehensive account of all the classical results of analytical dynamics.

Reviews

'The classical treatise on the subject of analytical dynamics - a work at once eminently readable, rigorously exact, and almost encyclopaedically comprehensive.' Science Progress 'It has become the standard work on the topics with which it deals.' Mathematical Gazette 'The best in the English language.' Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
