This book deals in a modern manner with a family of named problems
from an old and mature subject, classical elasticity. These
problems are formulated over either a half or the whole of a
linearly elastic and isotropic two- or three-dimensional space,
subject to loads concentrated at points or lines. The discussion of
each problem begins with a careful examination of the prevailing
symmetries, and proceeds with inverting the canonical order, in
that it moves from a search for balanced stress fields to the
associated strain and displacement fields. The book, although slim,
is fairly well self-contained; the only prerequisite is a
reasonable familiarity with linear algebra (in particular,
manipulation of vectors and tensors) and with the usual
differential operators of mathematical physics (gradient,
divergence, curl, and Laplacian); the few nonstandard notions are
introduced with care. Support material for all parts of the book is
found in the final Appendix.
