Classical Book suggestions on Galilean Transformations

AI Thread Summary
Books that provide comprehensive explanations of Galilean Transformations, including concrete examples and exercises, are being sought. The discussion highlights a gap in existing literature, where many resources focus solely on theoretical aspects without practical applications. A PhD thesis is shared as a potential resource, although it lacks additional exercises. Participants are encouraged to suggest books that meet these criteria. The need for more practical learning materials in this area is emphasized.

Hi,
I'm looking for books with a really good explanation on Galilean Transformations. I find the books and/or sections where only the theory of how to convert from one to another inertial system is mentioned, but nothing with concrete examples and additional exercises.

Any suggestions are welcomed!

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
