Dynamics of Rotation: An Elementary Introduction to Rigid Dynamics (Classic Reprint)

Many students of Physics or Engineering, who from want either of mathematical aptitude, or of sufficient training in the methods of analytical solid geometry, are unable to follow the works of mathematical writers on Kigid Dynamics, must have felt disappointed, after mastering so much of the Dynamics of a Particle as is given in the excellent and widely-used text-books of Loney, or Garnett, or Lock, to find that they have been obliged, after all, to stop short of the point at which their knowledge could be of appreciable practical use to them, and that the explanation of any of the phenomena exhibited by rotating or oscillating rigid bodies, so interesting and obviously important, was still beyond their reach. The aim of this little book is to help such students to make the most of what they have already learnt, and to carry their instruction to the point of practical utility.
