"This book gives a readable introduction to modern continuum mechanics following the remarkable reorganization and further development and expansion of classical continuum mechanics by Walter Noll and his associates in the flowstream of Newton, James Bernoulli, Euler, Cauchy and others. The present introductory text is suitably expressed and appropriate for senior under¬graduate and beginning graduate students of engineering, science and mathe¬matics. The development is self-contained and includes an introduction to tensor algebra and tensor calculus along with a discussion of general curvilinear coordinate systems. The potency of the theory along with the usefulness of general coordinates are illustrated by the material on the torsion of an elastic cylinder, culminating in an explanation of the fact that an incompressible isotropic elastic cylinder will lengthen in proportion to the square of the twist when twisted severely. This is the Poynting effect in its classical form and is an example of various results that cannot be explained by the corresponding classical in¬finitesimal theories. The book contains many worked examples and more than 220 exercises, most of which include helpful hints for the student."

This book, ten years in the making, is the first factual and conceptual history of Martin Heidegger's Being and Time (1927), a key twentieth-century text whose background until now has been conspicuously absent. Through painstaking investigation of European archives and private correspondence, Theodore Kisiel provides an unbroken account of the philosopher's early development and progress toward his masterwork.Beginning with Heidegger's 1915 dissertation, Kisiel explores the philosopher's religious conversion during the bleak war years, the hermeneutic breakthrough in the war-emergency semester of 1919, the evolution of attitudes toward his phenomenological mentor, Edmund Husserl, and the shifting orientations of the three drafts of Being and Time. Discussing Heidegger's little-known reading of Aristotle, as well as his last-minute turn to Kant and to existentialist terminology, Kisiel offers a wealth of narrative detail and documentary evidence that will be an invaluable factual resource for years to come.A major event for philosophers and Heidegger specialists, the publication of Kisiel's book allows us to jettison the stale view of Being and Time as a great book "frozen in time" and instead to appreciate the erratic starts, finite high points, and tentative conclusions of what remains a challenging philosophical "path."
