Modern graduate text on analytical mechanicsTreats time as a transformable coordinate integrating special relativity with other, more traditional topicsIntroduces notations and methods directly transferrable to quantum mechanicsHighlights the interface between classical and quantum mechanicsPedagogic style, including many exercises, while maintaining mathematical precision for deeper understandingNew to this Edition:Part I contains new chapters on Central Force Motion (Chapter 11) and Scattering (Chapter 12), and new material on time-independent canonical transformations. Part II contains a new chapter (Chapter 22) on Angle-Action Variables. These additions allow a more flexible use of the text. Part I is now a self-contained, introductory analytical mechanics course. The instructor can then select a range of topics from Part II appropriate to the interests of more advanced students.
