Rotational Dynamics/Angular Momentum

[discoverer02]

I'm at the end of a 1st semester college Physics class. I was handling it pretty well until we got to Rotational Dynamics/Angular Momentum. I could and will probably survive by practicing problems and recognizing the mechanical steps required to solve these certain types of problems, but I really want to acquire a fundamental understanding of the concepts involved rather than just be able to repeat the steps required.

Can anyone recommend some good, clear, easy to understand reading on these topics?

Thanks.

Have you seen HyperPhysics (http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hframe.html)?

Just click on "Mechanics" in the bubble map and go nuts.
