Contents:

1. Survey of the elementary principles -- 2. Variational principles and Lagrange's equations -- 3. The central force problem -- 4. The kinematics of rigid body motion -- 5. The rigid body equation of motion -- 6. Oscillations -- 7. The classical mechanics of the special theory of relativity -- 8. The Hamilton equations of motion -- 9. Canonical transformations -- 10. Hamilton-Jacobi theory and action-angle variables -- 11. Classical chaos -- 12. Canonical perturbation theory -- 13. Introduction to the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations for continuous systems and fields --

Summary: his classic book enables readers to make connections between classical and modern physics - an indispensable part of a physicist's education. In this new edition, Beams Medal winner Charles Poole and John Safko have updated the book to include the latest topics, applications, and notation, to reflect today's physics curriculum. They introduce readers to the increasingly important role that nonlinearities play in contemporary applications of classical mechanics. New numerical exercises help readers to develop skills in how to use computer techniques to solve problems in physics. Mathematical techniques are presented in detail so that the book remains fully accessible to readers who have not had an intermediate course in classical mechanics
