Contents:

1. Basic considerations and concepts -- 2. Foundations of classical mechanics -- 3. One-dimensional motion of a particle -- 4. Peculiar motion in two dimensions -- 5. Motion in a central force field -- 6. Gravitational interaction of two bodies -- 7. Collisions of particles. Scattering -- 8. Changing the frame of reference -- 9. Lagrangian mechanics -- 10. Conservation laws and symmetries in many particle systems -- 11. The rigid body -- 12. Small oscillations -- 13. Hamilton's mechanics -- 14. Hamilton-Jacobi theory -- 15. Three-body systems -- 16. Approximating non-integrable systems -- Appendix.

Summary: In this book we describe the evolution of Classical Mechanics from Newton's laws via Lagrange's and Hamilton's theories with strong emphasis on integrability versus chaotic behavior.
