Summary:

Students and professionals bought more than 300,000 copies of previous editions! This new edition draws on the best mathematical tool now available to solve problems. It applies the vector approach for elegance and simplicity in theory and problems whenever appropriate. Other times, for similarly adequate solutions, scalar methods are preferred. This study guide complements class texts and proves excellent for solo study and brushing up.

A Broad Cross-Section of Engineering Mechanics
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

This work presents a wide sampling of solved problems and problems to solve. These include problems related to vectors, beams, trusses, friction (including that on inclined surfaces), virtual work, dynamics of a particle, moments of inertia, mechanical vibrations, and much more.

I only wish that there was an accompanying manual of solved problems for the problems which are not solved in this book. If such a solutions manual exists, please write a comment about it under this review.

Might be better with separate outlines on each topic
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

I used this outline for review and with some problems I was having in a course on computational robotics I was taking a couple of years ago and I found this book to be an excellent review that answered all of my questions. However, my stepson used it in his statics and dynamics classes to help with the material when it was being presented to him for the first time, and he said he felt it brushed over some of the material in both classes. Even though this is a hefty outline, perhaps it would be better if they dedicated separate Schaum's outlines to each subject - statics and dynamics - and covered more ground in each subject rather than putting both subjects in the same book. This outline even has one chapter on mechanical vibrations, but it is just barely an overview and hardly gets into the subject at all. It might be best if that chapter were deleted entirely and more space spent on the subjects at hand.

Engineering Mechanics
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

This book was helpful in putting together arguments for problems I was working on.

Good supplementary text
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

I have always liked the Schaum's series of books. They are straightforward and to the point. This text was no exception.

The most important aspect of this book is that it can be used as a supplement to most of the popular texts. I used it along with Beer & Johnston and Shames.

Quite a useful book on a difficult, hands-on subject.
