Summary: What is the point?
Comment: This book treats mechanics of materials from a pedogogy that is thirty years old. Withthe advent of computer methods no one uses these solutions. Also, the approch is so rudementary that it limits one from reading any current treatment of the subject. Say something about stress functions, or more on inelasticity. If you want a refernce get Roarks if you want to learn something useful get Shames and Cozzarelli's book

Summary: Stay Away!
Comment: One of the most frustrating, useless, and difficult textbooks I have had in 20 years of school. I'm startled to see favorable reviews of this textbook as it is completely unhelpful as a reference or educational tool for anyone actually trying to learn Mechanics of Materials. The examples are difficult to follow. The text is overbearing. The figures are confusing. An awful textbook.
Rating: 5
Summary: A keeper
Comment: One of the best reference books to have on the shelf, although some others may be better as course textbooks.
