An Elementary Treatise on Theoretical Mechanics and the crucial relationship ofIn addition to being among the twentieth centurys major scientific figures, Sir James Jeans (18771946) was also one of the greatest modern science expositors. His classic introduction to mechanics endures as a clear and concise presentation of first principles. Although brief, it encompasses a remarkably wide selection of topics. Its subjects include rest and motion, force and the laws of motion, forces acting on a single particle, statics of systems
