CHOICE Recommended Title, June 2019

Brought together in one focused and exclusive treatment, this book provides an elementary introduction to the important role and use of the least action principle and the resulting Lagrange's equations in the analysis of the laws that govern the universe. It is an ideal complimentary resource to accompany undergraduate courses and textbooks on classical mechanics.

Features:

  • Uses mathematics accessible to beginners
  • Brings together the Principle of Least Action, Lagrange's equations, and variational principles in mechanics in one cohesive text
  • Written in a clear and easy-to-understand manner
