Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Elements of Dynamic, Vol. 1: An Introduction to the Study of Motion and Rest in Solid and Fluid Bodies; Kinematic
Motions are generally very complicated. To fix the ideas, consider the case of a man sitting in one corner of a railway carriage, who gets up and moves to the opposite corner. He has gone from one place to another; he has turned round; he has continually changed in shape, and many of his muscles have changed in size during the process.
