The book provides the subject matter of first year University course in mechanics for students of physics and related subjects, e.g. engineering and "physics with ..." course. It would be used as well as the basis for an `A' level course in applied mathematics. It contains the principles introduced in an empirical way mixed in with examples with solutions and with exercises for which the solutions are given. The examples and exercises are applications of the principles whilst the solutions are illustrations of the technique to be used in applying those principles. The provision of solutions to all the problems should make it useful to students as a "self-help" and revision text, but it is NOT a programmed text. This book is intended for first-year undergraduate students of physics or physics-related subjects (e.g. engineering physics or "physics with ..." courses). Also suitable for A-level applied mathematics.
