Scheck's course in mechanics is essential reading for students in physics, astronomy, and mathematics who want to become acquainted with classical mechanics, relativistic mechanics, and modern topics such as deterministic chaos. The second edition has been revised and now includes all solutions with thorough discussion of the problem solving strategy.

From the reviews:
"¿ The author writes well and comprehensively ¿ Ideal for a physics student desirous of mastering the basic tools." Contemporary Physics
"Scheck has provided us with an assortment of problems¿In addition, he has added an innovation: ¿practical¿ exercises along with suggested methods of approach for a solution¿ I would not be surprised if it were to find wider use among faculty and advanced students seeking to update their picture of mechanics¿one might do considerably worse than to use it as an entrée into the literature of chaos."
