A strong conceptual understanding of these basic mechanics principles is essential to successfully solving mechanics problems. We hope that this text, as well as the preceding volume, 'Vector Mechanics for Engineers : Statics', will help instructors achieve this goal."--taken from Objective, page xiii ER -
