Learning classical mechanics doesn't have to be hard
What if there was a way to learn classical mechanics without all the usual fluff? What if there were a book that allowed you to see the whole picture and not just tiny parts of it?
Thoughts like this are the reason that No-Nonsense Classical Mechanics now exists.
What will you learn from this book?
- Get to know all fundamental mechanics concepts - Grasp why we can describe classical mechanics using the Lagrangian formalism, the Newtonian formalism, or the Hamiltonian formalism and how these frameworks are connected.
- Learn to describe classical mechanics mathematically - Understand the meaning and origin of the most important equations: Newton's second law, the Euler-Lagrange equation and Hamilton's equations.
- Master the most important classical mechanics systems - Read fully annotated, step-by-step calculations and understand the general algorithm we use to describe them.
- Get an understanding you can be proud of - Learn about beautiful and deep insights like Noether's theorem or Liouville's theorem and how classical mechanics emerges in a proper limit of special relativity, quantum mechanics and general relativity.
No-Nonsense Classical Mechanics is the most student-friendly book on classical nechanics ever written.
Here's why.
- First of all, it's nothing like a formal university lecture. Instead, it's like a casual conservation with a more experienced student. This also means that nothing is assumed to be "obvious" or "easy to see".
- Each chapter, each section, and each page focuses solely on the goal to help you understand. Nothing is introduced without a thorough motivation and it is always clear where each equation comes from.
- The book contains no fluff since unnecessary content quickly leads to confusion. Instead, it ruthlessly focuses on the fundamentals and makes sure you'll understand them in detail.
The primary focus on the readers' needs is also visible in dozens of small features that you won't find in any other textbook
- In total, the book contains more than 100 illustrations that help you understand the most important concepts visually.
- In each chapter, you'll find fully annotated equations and calculations are done carefully step-by-step. This makes it much easier to understand what's going on.
- Whenever a concept is used that was already introduced previously there is a short sidenote that reminds you where it was first introduced and often recites the main points.
- In addition, there are summaries at the beginning of each chapter that make sure you won't get lost.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
學習經典力學不必困難
如果有一種方法可以在沒有所有通常繁瑣內容的情況下學習經典力學,那會怎樣?如果有一本書能讓你看到整體而不僅僅是其中的小部分呢?
這樣的想法促成了《無廢話經典力學》的誕生。
你將從這本書中學到什麼?
- 了解所有基本的力學概念 - 理解為什麼我們可以使用拉格朗日形式、牛頓形式或哈密頓形式來描述經典力學,以及這些框架之間的聯繫。
- 學會用數學描述經典力學 - 理解最重要的方程式的意義和來源:牛頓第二定律、歐拉-拉格朗日方程和哈密頓方程。
- 掌握最重要的經典力學系統 - 閱讀完整註解的逐步計算,並理解我們用來描述它們的一般算法。
- 獲得值得驕傲的理解 - 學習諸如諾特定理或李維爾定理等美麗而深刻的見解,以及經典力學如何在特殊相對論、量子力學和廣義相對論的適當極限中出現。
《無廢話經典力學》是有史以來最適合學生的經典力學書籍。
這是為什麼。
- 首先,它完全不同於正式的大學講座。相反,它更像是與一位經驗更豐富的學生的輕鬆對話。這也意味著沒有任何內容被假設為「顯而易見」或「容易理解」。
- 每一章、每一節和每一頁都專注於幫助你理解的目標。沒有任何內容是在沒有充分動機的情況下引入的,並且每個方程式的來源始終清晰可見。
- 這本書不包含任何繁瑣內容,因為不必要的內容會迅速導致混淆。相反,它無情地專注於基本原則,並確保你能詳細理解它們。
對讀者需求的主要關注也體現在數十個小特徵上,這些特徵在其他教科書中找不到。
- 總的來說,這本書包含超過100幅插圖,幫助你以視覺方式理解最重要的概念。
- 在每一章中,你會發現完整註解的方程式,計算都是仔細逐步進行的。這使得理解發生了什麼變得容易得多。
- 每當使用到之前已經介紹過的概念時,會有一個簡短的附註提醒你它首次出現的地方,並經常重述主要要點。
- 此外,每一章的開頭都有摘要,確保你不會迷失方向。
