I have taken a look at Kleppner and Kolenkow and that seems around the right level of difficulty but I was wondering if there were any other books that worked well alongside the Walter Lewin lectures on OCW. Would K&K?
Also, where does K&K go up to? Does it include all undergraduate Classical Mechanics or just 1/2nd year? Could you go from this to say a graduate text?
I am looking for general feedback for K&K but also recommendations of books that I could use and could you please tell me which books are lower or upper level and if they cover all undergrad material. Finally, is Taylor's book appropriate for undergrad or just lower or just upper level? If it's upper level, could you use K&K before, if K&K is lower level(?). I am sorry for the unorganised nature but I am just trying to get a better picture of what approaches I could take.
