Abstract

S. Borowitz New York: W. A. Benjamin. 1967 Pp. xiv + 401. Price $13.90. The introduction of the Hamiltonian to students is made in a variety of ways and at different levels, and for many the first mention is in connexion with wave mechanics. This volume, however, sets out to provide a thorough understanding of the basic concepts and methods of wave theory, of the variational principles in optics and of Hamiltonian mechanics, before the introduction of wave mechanics.
