For the past forty years Beer and Johnston have been the uncontested leaders in the teaching of undergraduate engineering mechanics. Over the years their textbooks have introduced significant theoretical and pedagogical innovations in statics, dynamics, and mechanics of materials education. At the same time, their careful presentation of content, unmatched levels of accuracy, and attention to detail have made their texts the standard for excellence. The new Seventh Edition of Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics continues this tradition.The seventh edition is complemented by a media and supplement package that is targeted to address core course needs for both the student and the instructor. Designed for the first courses in statics and dynamics offered in the sophomore or junior year, this textbook introduces vector analysis early and uses it throughout (a parallel text, Mechanics for Engineers, limits the use of vector algebra to the addition and subtraction of vectors, and omits vector differentiation entirely). Both sections of the book treat particles and rigid bodies separately (in part one, statics of particles are covered first), so that practical applications are introduced early on. Each chapter contains sample problems with solutions, end-of-chapter problems and computer problems, and a review and summary
