520 This classic introductory text, geared toward
undergraduate students of mathematics, is the work of an
internationally renowned authority on tensor calculus. The
two-part treatment offers a rigorous presentation of
tensor calculus as a development of vector analysis as
well as discussions of the most important applications of
tensor calculus. Starting with a chapter on vector spaces,
Part I explores affine Euclidean point spaces, tensor
algebra, curvilinear coordinates in Euclidean space, and
Riemannian spaces. Part II examines the use of tensors in
classical analytical dynamics and details the role of
tensors in special relativity theory. The book concludes
with a brief presentation of the field equations of
general relativity theory.
