Classical Dynamics
by David Tong
Publisher: University of Cambridge 2005
Number of pages: 137
Description:
We shall describe the advances that took place during the 150 years after Newton when the laws of motion were reformulated using more powerful techniques and ideas developed by some of the giants of mathematical physics: people such as Euler, Lagrange, Hamilton and Jacobi.

Elementary Dynamics: a textbook for engineers
by Joseph Whittington Landon - Cambridge University Press
The book presents the principles of elementary dynamics, and explains the meaning of the physical quantities involved, partly by definition and description, but mainly by worked examples in which formulae have been avoided as far as possible.
