This is the 2nd edition of Truesdell and Noll's classic treatise on the mechanics of continua. The authors, who contributed to an axiomatic approach to continuum mechanics, present a solid foundation of non-linear materials science and basic properties of fluid media, striving to find a rational ingress to more complex mechanical phenomena by setting up clear and plausible theories of mechanical behaviour. Since its first publication in 1965 this book has been the basis for all subsequent research in this important field. This edition should be highly welcome to both engineers and physicists.
