Other books for reference:
(You do not need these, but if you want an alternate source, here are
some I know of)
-
More advanced or at this level:
-
Herbert Goldstein, Classical Mechanics, 2nd ed. QA805.G6 1980.
This is the book I used before writing mine, and is most similar in
spirit to mine. There is now a third edition, with Poole and Safko,
which includes a chapter on chaos and a minimal treatment of
differential forms.
- Landau and Lifshitz, Mechanics 3rd ed. QA805.L283/1976
- Percival and Richards, Intro. to Dynamics,
Cambridge, 1982 QA614.8.P47 1982. This is where I learned the
most about flows in phase space.
- Arnold, Math. Methods of Classical Mechanics
QA805.A6813/1981. This is the canonical high-brow text.
- Jose and Saletan, Classical Dynamics QA805.J73/1998
- Corben and Stehle, Classical Dynamics
- Matzner and Shepley, Classical Dynamics ISBN 0-13-137076-6
- Talman, Geometric Mechanics ISBN 0-471-15738-4 QC125.2.T35 1999
- More elementary:
- Jerry B. Marion and Stephen T. Thornton,
Classical Dynamics, (3rd ed) QA845.M38 1995
- Keith R. Symon, Mechanics, (3rd ed) QC125.2.S94 1971
- John R. Taylor, Classical Mechanics QC125.2.T39
ISBN 1-891389-22-X
- A. Douglas Davis, Classical Mechanics QC125.2.D38 1986.
- Kleppner, Daniel and Kolenkow, Robert J.
an Introduction to Mechanics QA805.K62
- French, Newtonian Mechanics QC125.2.F74
- Arya, Introduction to Classical Mechanics
- Mathematical material
- Paul Bamberg and Shlomo Sternberg, A Course in Mathematics
for Students of Physics, 2 QA37.2 B36 1991
- H. M. Schey, div grad curl and all that, QA433.S28 2004.
more elementary.
There are also some of my notes you might want to look at that are not
included in my book, but could be helpful:
