Edition DescriptionRevised edition,New Edition
SynopsisFor many years, this book has been viewed as a classic treatment of geometric mechanics. It is known for its broad exposition of the subject, with many features that cannot be found elsewhere. The book is recommended as a textbook and as a basic reference work for the foundations of differentiable and Hamiltonian dynamics., This is a reference on symplectic geometry, analytical mechanics and symplectic methods in mathematical physics., Undoubtedly [the book] will be for years the standard reference on symplectic geometry, analytical mechanics and symplectic methods in mathematical physics.
