Produktinformationen zu „How Mechanics Shaped the Modern World (PDF)“
This updated and augmented second edition covers the history of mechanics in such a way as to explain how this all-important discipline shaped our world. Like the first edition, Dr. Allen presents the material in an engaging, accessible manner, with many historic insights and thorough explanations of attending concepts. The text retains its coverage of classical mechanics, essentially Newtonian mechanics, and adds chapters on three additional topics that go well beyond classical mechanics: relativity, quantum/nanomechanics, and biomechanics.
- Contextualizes mechanics from the ancients, through Newton, and up to 21st Century nanotechnology
- Explains how these new developments in mechanics will continue to alter our world
- Appropriate for undergraduate students and faculty as well as lay readers interested in physics and engineering
