For 30 years, this book has been the acknowledged standard in advanced classical mechanics courses. This classic book enables readers to make connections between classical and modern physics — an indispensable part of a physicist's education. In this new edition, Beams Medal winner Charles Poole and John Safko have updated the book to include the latest topics, applications, and notation to reflect today's physics curriculum.

Le présent volume regroupe les textes de conférences données lors de la rencontre « Logique mathémathique, Informatique et Philosophie », organisé en avril 2003 à l’université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne sous la direction de Jean-Baptiste Joinet. Ce colloque réunissait les principaux acteurs du collectif interdisciplinaire « Logique et Interaction : vers une Géométrie de la Cognition » (LIGC) et divers universitaires d’autres horizons. La première partie, intitulée La logique à la croisée des chemins, rassemble des réflexions sur les évolutions récentes de la logique et les aspects fondamentaux de la mathématisation des champs scientifiques spécifiques (physique, biologie). Ces contributions (J.-Y. Girard, J.-B. Joinet et G. Longo, T. Paul) visent à dégager un nouveau statut épistémologique pour la logique et les mathématiques, et à tirer les leçons philosophiques de ces évolutions quant à la rationalité scientifique et l’intelligibilité de la nature. Dans la seconde partie, intitulée Questions sémantiques : réalisme, règles et vérité, les contributeurs (S. Tronçon, P. Dehornoy, G. Dowek, P. Livet, D. Bonnay) revisitent les grandes notions sémantiques traditionnelles sous l’angle des évolutions récentes de la logique dans son dialogue avec l’informatique fondamentale.

The book begins at the simplest level, develops the basics, and reinforces fundamentals, ensuring a solid foundation in the principles and methods of physics. It provides an ideal introduction for college-level students of physics, chemistry, and engineering, for motivated AP Physics students, and for general readers interested in advances in the sciences.

This is the first English translation of Simplicius' responses to Philoponus' Against Aristotle on the Eternity of the World. The commentary is published in two volumes: Ian Mueller's previous book in the series, Simplicius: On Aristotle On the Heavens 1.2-3, and this book on 1.3-4. Philoponusthe Christian, had argued that Aristotle's arguments do not succeed. For all they show to the contrary, Christianity may be right that the heavens were brought into existence by the only divine being and one moment in time, and will cease to exist at some future moment. Simplicius upholds the pagan view.

Aristotle argues in On the Heavens 1.5-7 that there can be no infinitely large body, and in 1.8-9 that there cannot be more than one physical world. As a corollary in 1.9, he infers that there is no place, vacuum or time beyond the outermost stars. As one argument in favour of a single world, he argues that his four elements: earth, air, fire and water, have only one natural destination apiece. Moreover they accelerate as they approach it and acceleration cannot be unlimited. However, the Neoplatonist Simplicius, who wrote the commentary in the sixth century Ad (here translated into English), tells us that this whole world view was to be rejected by Strato, the third head of Aristotle's school. At the same time, he tells us the different theories of acceleration in Greek philosophy.
