Book Reviews of Mechanics of Materials (Pws-Kent Series in Engineering)

Book Review: This book is an essential Degree course-book.
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is the bees-knees. It is pure algebra throughout and the way the thoery is presented is superb. There is very little modern-math, everything is shown using trig or calculus. Essential book for Moment-Area and deflection theory. If you need a structures text-book, get this one. Timoshenko's 'Plates and Shells' was scary: this book is not. It's timeless and will be read for years and years.
