"A summary of obviously extensive and thorough effort ... very well written." -- Applied Mechanics ReviewsConsidered the first work in English dedicated solely to theoretical kinematics, this book has won an outstanding reputation among worker in the field. The treatment is rigorous and elegant, focusing on the mathematical development of the subject apart from any particular applications. The authors begin with general concepts and problems and then specialize gradually to more simple cases.
The book is divided into 13 chapters. The first two deal with displacement and motion in n-dimensional Euclidean space. The next three chapters discuss two-, three-, and four-and-more position theory for both finite and infinitesimal displacements. This is followed by a series of chapters on kinematics itself beginning with a chapter on continuous motion. The next three chapters then discuss spherical kinematics, plane kinematics, and special motions, respectively. The book concludes with chapters on n-parameter motions, non-Euclidean kinematics, and mathematical methods useful in kinematics theory. Over 800 examples and an extensive bibliography further enhance the usefulness of the text.
Because of its generality and lucid style, this classic work will be invaluable not only to specialists in kinematics but also to those with mathematical training working in biomechanics, computer-aided design, geology, multi-body dynamics, robotics, or any field where rigid body motions need to be understood or modeled analytically, It is a standard reference that belongs in the library of anyone whose work includes subject matter of kinematic content.
"In its thoughtfulness, elegance, balance, rigor, kinematic insight, and encyclopedic nature, it is my judgment the finest treatment of theoretical kinematics which has yet been written." -- American Scientists

Great wine opener plus accessories
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: 4-in-1
I gifted it, no need for gift wrapping --very nice presentation. My cousin was very happy with how easy it was to use. Plus the items included made it a complete wine owner's experience. Will definitely keep this in mind for more gift giving.

Love this Wine Opener!
Color: Silver
I purchased this wine opener 10 years ago and it has worked excellent. Very easy to use and attractive. It's starting to act up a bit now, becoming a little sporadic in it's powering up. I am ordering same one again. An excellent product and value!

WOW factor for your guests.
Color: Silver
Oster electric wine bottle opener that is silver in color is an awesome wine bottle opener that works as expected. There are so many electric wine bottle openers out there and trying to decide which electric bottle opener to purchase can be a challenge. Fortunately this is one of the best electric wine bottle openers out there and you will not be disappointed if you decide to make a purchase. It is no wonder that this is a number one best seller in the electric wine bottle opener category. Number ones are infamous for failing to live up to their hype. Luckily this electric opener merits to be number one and my best guess is that this electric opener will be in this position for a long time. The electric opener goes for $17.99. Shop around and you will not find a better value than this one. There are pricey electric openers that fail in what they do and as such there is no need of investing in such yet this is a viable solution. There is nothing much to say about this opener other than it is a cordless electric bottle opener that removes the cork in a matter of seconds. The haste in which it opens the bottles is simply amazing. You can open up to 2 wine bottles in a minute. It can open a number of bottles in a single charge and if that is not convenience then I don’t know what is. I am sure this is the kind of electric opener you will probably find in a busy bar or hotel. Efficiency and quality are the two words that best describe this electric opener. There is a foil cutter that removes seals first before removing the cork. The handle has a gentle grip which ensures that you will not have to keep positioning the electric opener. The design of the opener is also outstanding. It is very easy to use the electric opener. Just place it on top of the wine bottle in an upright position. Press the switch on the opener and the opener will start removing the cork. It will stop once the cork has been removed from the bottle. Then lift the opener away from the bottle, remove the stuck cork by pressing the upper part of the switch and the cork will be released and the party can begin. There is even no elbow grease required to operate the opener. Read the manual if you are confused about the operations but the bottom line is that the opener is very easy to operate and you shouldn’t be perturbed because you can’t use it. It is a time saver and a WOW factor for your guests.
