In response to popular demand, University Science Books is delighted to announce the one and only authorized Student Solutions Manual for John R. Taylor’s internationally best-selling textbook, Classical Mechanics. This splendid little manual, by the textbook’s own author, restates the odd-numbered problems from the book and the provides crystal-clear, detailed solutions.

Now available in print and ebook formats.
