Matter And Motion

This is a study of Newtonian dynamics made by James Clerk Maxwell in his best traditions of research and experiment. Matter and Motion is often recognized as one of the best introductions to the study of dynamics. While the first chapters are devoted to the motion of particles, the last chapters are focused on the motion of whole systems. Maxwell also includes his chapter called "On the Equation of Motion of a Connected System" from Volume II of Electricity and Magnetism to Matter and Motion. Be
