Staab and J. Brooks Breeden. Part of ISBN 007118939D N2 - In the latter part of the seventeenth century, Sir Isaac Newton stated these fundamentals principles of mechanics. Today these basic vector mechanic principles are being used in space exploration - proof that these principles are still at the foundation of engineering. - Back cover ER -
