Synopsis

This classic created a new system of mechanics based on space, time, and mass, taking into account logic, observation, and a priori elements. The two-part treatment begins with the geometry and kinematics of material systems and concludes with the mechanics of material systems. 1900 edition.

From the Back Cover

German physicist HEINRICH RUDOLF HERTZ (1857-1894) confirmed the existence of radio waves and paved the way for our age of wireless communication, and just before his untimely death, he completed this treatise that created a system of mechanics in terms of space, time, and mass.

Fusing theory and experiment, philosophy and logic, and extending Newtonian mechanics for the era before quantum physics, this now-classic work covers:

* positions and displacements of points and systems * on the straightest distance in holonomous systems * kinematics * motion of free and unfree systems * discontinuities of motion * and more.

The foundational work of mathematics and physics will intrigue all those interested in our modern scientific understanding of the world.

Review

"Anyone with questions to ask about the foundations of classical mechanics will find answers here."
