Ideally suited to undergraduate students with some grounding in classical mechanics, the book is enhanced throughout with learning features such as boxed inserts and chapter summaries, with key mathematical derivations highlighted to aid understanding. Each volume is self-contained and provides all the material necessary for the individual course topic. This textbook offers a clear and comprehensive introduction to analytical mechanics, one of the core components of undergraduate physics courses. The text is supported by numerous worked examples and end of chapter problem sets. Wolfgang Nolting is famous for his refined didactical style and has been referred to as the "German Feynman" in reviews. Numerous problems with detailed solutions support a deeper understanding. Finally, the Hamilton-Jacobi theory and the transition to wave mechanics are presented in detail. About the Theoretical Physics series Translated from the renowned and highly successful German editions, the eight volumes of this series cover the complete core curriculum of theoretical physics at undergraduate level. It continues with an in-depth explanation of Hamiltonian mechanics, illustrated by canonical and Legendre transformation, the generalization to quantum mechanics through Poisson brackets and all relevant variational principles. The book starts with a thorough introduction into Lagrangian mechanics, detailing the dâAlembert principle, Hamiltonâs principle and conservation laws.
