Very good book 
I bought this book because it was cheap, but seemed semi-interesting; I didn't think I would ever pick it up. When I did open it I found it fascinating. There are many proofs and theory, but it is not too difficult. I'm not finished it, but I recommend this book to anyone with a background in mechanics.

Most Valuable Math Book on the Historic Mechanical Examples of the Strength of Materials.
If you are not interested in civil engineering than you would probably be disappointed with this great math history book.It covers all the great mechanical master-builders and mathematical thinkers over the last five hundred years.It spans the whole length of their contributions to the field of engineering concerning the strength,deformations,and disruptions of solid materials pertaining to architectural structures and industrial features.This book is invaluable to anyone interested in the basis of today's theorical equations,accomplishments of the respected mathematicians and their accepted applied scientific practises.

Engineers Only 
This book is clearly intended for engineers or those studying engineering (as
the other reviews indicate). For everyone else, it may as well be written in
Mayan glyphs. I sent it back.

Necessary to the students who are studyng Civil Eng.
This is a very good book. if you are a first or second year student studying any engineering(especialy Mechanics and Civil Eng.), You'd better it now. It helps you to understand the foundation theorem of mechanics especialy in elasticity. It's very helpful if you read it with Timoshenko and Gere's "Mechanics of materials"
