Introduction to Classical Mechanics

Provides an account of the classical mechanics at an intermediate level. This book is designed to bridge the gap between introductory college physics and advanced mechanics which will give a basis for future work in applied and pure mechanics, especially advanced physics such as quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics and optics.
