5.0 out of 5 stars

Not for everybody, obviously, but this is a pretty terrific book, what I've read of it, at least. Compiled here is a kind of general theory of various classes of exactly solvable problems in classical mechanics. This is the kind of thing that could grow very mathematical very quickly, but Calogero keeps it grounded in the actual formulas and procedures, rather than trying to dress it up in abstract group theory or whatever.
