An Introduction To Mechanics, by Robert J. Kolenkow and Daniel
Kleppner, is a comprehensive elaboration of mechanics in the field of
Physics. This book is primarily for the students of an undergraduate
course in Physics. In this book, the basic concepts related to the
mechanics of Physics are elaborated. The presentation makes it easy to
understand from the standpoint of the student who has a general
knowledge about calculus and fundamental mathematics.There are
chapters based on important topics like kinetics, vectors, work and
energy, central force motion, relativistic kinematics, angular momentum,
fixed axis rotation, harmonic oscillator, the basics of newtonian
mechanism, non-inertial systems, fictitious forces, rigid body motion,
conservation of angular momentum, and many more to list down. There
are over 700 illustrations to help the students understand better. Also,
there are exercises segregated question-wise at the end of each chapter
for the students to practice on the basis of their study.In addition to the
conceptual text and question papers, there are a lot of solved examples to
provide additional practice-support to the students. To gain the initial
information about mechanics, this book is a good reference guide. An
Introduction To Mechanics (SIE) was published by Tata McGraw Hill
Education in 2007 and is available in paperback.

Robert J. Kolenkow is professionally a physicist and an author of several


books. In addition to his book An Introduction to Mechanics (SIE), he
has also co-authored another book titled Physical Geography Today: A
Portrait of a Planet. He is known for his simple writing style and in-
depth knowledge of technical subjects. In the past, he has been a
professor of Physics, and graduated from MIT university in 1955. Daniel
Kleppner also is a professional physicist and a specialist of atomic
physics. He received the Davisson Germer Prize in surface and atomic
physics in 1986, and the National Medal of Science in 2006.
