Dynamics: Engineering Mechanics, International Student Version

Dynamics: Engineering Mechanics, Second Edition, by Benson H. Tongue of University of California-Berkeley, offers a student-focused approach to Dynamics. With a strong emphasis on drawing free body diagrams and the associated inertial response diagrams, an integrated use of computation, use of a structured problem-solving methodology, inclusion of real-world case studies, and robust pedagogy coupled with a truly engaging writing style, reviewers alike have praised this new Dynamics text.
