This text is concerned with the mechanics of rigid and deformable solids in equilibrium. It has been prepared by members of the Mechanical Engineering Department at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for use as a text in the first course in applied mechanics. The central aim has been to treat this subject as an engineering science. To this end the authors have clearly identified three fundamental physical considerations which govern the mechanics of solids in equilibrium, and all discussion and theoretical development has been related to these basic considerations.

The Best,
This review is from: An Introduction to the Mechanics of Solids: Second Edition with SI Units (Paperback)
This is the best book there is for introductory solid mechanics. The material is explained in a nice clear manner, and there is very little that is non-essential. This book inspired my interest in solid mechanics and now I am a researcher in solid mechanics.

This review is from: An Introduction to the Mechanics of Solids: Second Edition with SI Units (Paperback)
This book is amazing. It helped me a lot in my course when the actual course material was hard to understand and useless. Simple put, this book got me an 'A'.

This review is from: An Introduction to the Mechanics of Solids: Second Edition with SI Units (Paperback)
I received the old version without SI units. Now I have to convert the questions from other people's books.
