This book provides a brief introduction to rational continuum
mechanics in a form suitable for students of engineering,
mathematics and science. The presentation is tightly focused on the
simplest case of the classical mechanics of nonpolar materials,
leaving aside the effects of internal structure, temperature and
electromagnetism, and excluding other mathematical models, such as
statistical mechanics, relativistic mechanics and quantum
mechanics. Within the limitations of the simplest mechanical
theory, the author had provided a text that is largely
self-contained. Though the book is primarily an introduction to
continuum mechanics, the lure and attraction inherent in the
subject may also recommend the book as a vehicle by which the
student can obtain a broader appreciation of certain important
methods and results from classical and modern analysis.
