Reviews

"These volumes are a valuable addition to the literature on geometric mechanics. They are very well written, can be used for various courses independently or in conjunction with other texts, both more elementary and advanced, and can also serve as a good starting point for someone interested in the subject and willing to learn the principles and techniques of geometric mechanics. -- MathSciNet ""MathSciNet"""
