For students studying math, preparing for exams and otherwise engaged in class work, these concise, 'essential' study guides provide just the right amount of information; the brief explanations aren't tedious reading, yet neither do they provide too little information to be of use. Short chapters review vectors and scalars, one-dimensional motion, plane motion, dynamics of a particle, work and energy, conservation of energy, dynamics of systems of particles, rotational kinematics and dynamics, harmonic motion, sound waves, gravitation, equilibrium of rigid bodies, fluid statics and dynamics, temperature, heat and the first law of thermodynamics, kinetic theory of gases, and entropy and the second law of thermodynamics. 96 pages, softcover.
