A History Of The Theory Of Elasticity And Of The Strength Of Materials: From Galilei To The Present Time (Cambridge Library Collection - Mathematics) (Volume 1)

A distinguished mathematician and notable university teacher, Isaac Todhunter (1820-84) became known in his time for his successful textbooks. Edited and completed by Karl Pearson (1857-1936), and published between 1886 and 1893, this three-part work traces the mathematical understanding of elasticity from Galileo to Lord Kelvin.
