Contents : 1. Introductory Ideas 2. Langrangian Dynamics 3. Hamiltonian Dynamics 4. Two-Body Central Force Problem 5. Variational Principles 6. Canonical Transformations 7. Brackets and Liouville`s Theorem 8. Hamilton-Jacobi Theory and Transition to Quantum Mechanics 9. Small Oscillations and Normal Modes (Coupled-Oscillators) 10. Dynamics of a Rigid Body 11. Noninertial and Rotating Coordinate Systems 12. Special Theory of Relativity-Lorentz Transformations 13. Relativistic Mechanics 14. Four Dimensional Formulation-Minkowski Space 15. Convariant Formulation of Electrodynamics 16. Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos

Summary: In the present edition of the book, the subject matter has been thoroughly revised and enlarged not only to cover the latest syllabi of the various Indian Universities, but a lot of attention has been paid keeping in view the requirements of the students, appearing in different national and state level competitive examinations, e.g., NET/JRF, GATE, etc. Further, a sufficient number of problems (solved and unsolved) and objective type questions have been added so that the aspiring students may have a good practice and develop a good insight in the subject. With these improvements, the present form of the book is expected relatively more useful for the student community.
