"The book developed out of many years of teaching experience gained by the authors while giving courses on engineering mechanics to students of mechanical, civil and electrical engineering. The contents of the book correspond to the topics normally covered in courses on basic engineering mechanics at universities and colleges. The theory is presented in as simple a form as the subject allows without being imprecise. This approach makes the text accessible to students from different disciplines and allows for their different educational backgrounds. Another aim of the book is to provide students as well as practising engineers with a solid foundation to help them bridge the gaps between undergraduate studies, advanced courses on mechanics and practical engineering problems."--Page [V].
