Addison-Wesley is proud to announce the imminent publication of Anthony Bedford and Wallace Fowler's Engineering Mechanics: Statics, Second Edition. The revised textbook will be published in July 1998 and will be available in time for Fall '98 classes. Users of the first edition praised its organization, the clarity of writing, the quality of the art program, its many realistic applications. Bedford/Fowler has quickly earned a place in Engineering schools across the country because it teaches engineering mechanics the way a good instructor would. 
Hallmark Features 
Problem Solving Uses a "Strategy-Solution-Discussion" problem-solving methodology that explains how to approach problems, solve them, and critically judge the results 
Visualization Stresses the importance of visual analysis, especially the use of free-body diagrams Develops figures gradually and employs "ghosting" techniques to clarify and emphasize concepts-- emulating the way an instructor teaches 
Applications Places engineering mechanics within the context of engineering practice by including applications from many fields of engineering Introduces design principles with the "Application to Engineering" feature using concepts developed in preceding sections of the chapter 
New Features 
Organization Includes section on distributed forces on beams earlier in the text in Chapter 7 Presents Friction chapter earlier-- now Chapter 9 Reorganizes the material in Chapter 10, now called Internal Forces and Moments 
Content Strengthens already superior coverage of FBDs Presents a revised discussion of loads in Chapter 6 Provides new examples throughout the text including the popular feature," Application to Engineering" Increases the number of homework problems by 15% 
Other Provides a thoroughly revised solution manual written by Wallace Fowler

Addison-Wesley is pleased to announce the imminent publication of Anthony Bedford and Wallace Fowler's Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics, Second Edition. The revised textbook will be published in November 1998, available in time for January '99 classes. This book has quickly earned a place in Engineering schools across the country because it teaches engineering mechanics the way a good instructor would. Hallmark Features 
Problem Solving Uses a "Strategy-Solution-Discussion" problem-solving methodology that
explains how to approach problems, solve them, and critically judge the results 
Visualization Stresses the importance of visual analysis, especially the use of free-body
diagrams Develops figures gradually and employs "ghosting" techniques to clarify and
emphasize concepts-- emulating the way an instructor teaches 
Applications Places engineering mechanics within the context of engineering practice by
including applications from many fields of engineering
 Introduces design principles with the "Application to Engineering" feature using concepts developed in preceding sections of the chapter 
New Features 
Visualization 
Provides more free-body diagrams to many of the worked examples
Separates most of the diagrams showing velocities, accelerations, and forces intoa free-body diagram showing the forces and a kinematic diagram showing the accelerations 
Content Extends the discussion of normal and tangential components in Chapter 2 to
include three- dimensional motion Includes a revised discussion of reference frames throughout the text, especially in Chapters 2 and 6 Improves the discussion of impulsive forces in Chapter 5 Improves the discussion of 2D rigid-body kinematics in Chapter 6 Expands and improves the discussion of D'Alembert's principle in Chapter 7
Provides a revised and improved discussion of angular impulse and momentum in Chapter 8 Expands the discussion of 3D rigid body dynamics in Chapter 9 and provides
new examples and problems Offers several new examples throughout the text including more of the popular feature, "Application to Engineering" Includes more than 20% new and revised end-of-chapter problems 
Organization Presents section on Orbital Mechanics in Chapter 3 Other Provides a thoroughly revised solution manual written by Wallace Fowler

Presents the linear theory of elasticity culminating in the displacement equations of motion. Analyzes one-dimensional waves through the d'Alembert solution and the method of characteristics. Discusses transient waves, analytical methods in nonlinear wave propagation, and includes examples of harmonic waves such as reflections of plane waves at interfaces, Rayleigh waves, waves in elastic layers and in layered materials.

Focusing on the whole range of conflict settings - interpersonal, group, and organizational - Working Through Conflict, Third Edition, provides an introduction to conflict management that is firmly grounded in current theory and research. The text encompasses a wide range of theoretical perspectives and includes timely, up-to-date coverage of the role of third parties in conflict resolution. Numerous, highly practical case studies clarify theoretical content and make it accessible to a broad audience. Updated to reflect the latest research and theory, the third edition of Working Through Conflict includes new information on culture and conflict and the impact of cultural differences. Prefaced by new "Imagine Yourself..." questions that encourage the reader to assume the role of one of the disputants, each case study also ends with questions that highlight the theory behind the case and encourage classroom discussion.
