Excerpt from An hassle-free remedy of the speculation of Spinning Tops and Gyroscopic Motion

The item of this booklet is to carry in the diversity of the abler Mathematicians at our Public colleges and of First yr undergraduates on the Universities, a subject matter which has hitherto been thought of too tricky for any however the extra complicated scholars in arithmetic, whereas even they've got in lots of situations didn't derive extra excitement from the examine of spinning tops than is contained in filing the matter to the motion of a classy piece of Mathematical equipment which instantly, notwithstanding unintelligently, seems the right kind result.

In this try to current an undemanding, and even as a systematic view of the topic, i've got extended a number of of the suggestive rules recommend in Dynamics of Rotation through Professor Worthington, to whom is due a wide debt of thank you for far liberal feedback and advice within the previous chapters, and for permission to borrow his article on Brennan's Monorail.

In my different critics i've been equally lucky. Dr. Besant, Fellow of St. John's university, Cambridge, learn and commented on a number of chapters of their first variation of manuscript; and in dedicating this quantity to him i've got endeavoured to specific the curiosity within the topic, and the affection of it, which I owe to his inspiring educating. Professor Hopkinson of the Engineering Laboratory at Cambridge has additionally learn sure parts, whereas a lot information has been rendered by means of my buddy and overdue colleague Mr. W. M. web page, Fellow of Kings collage, Cambridge, with whom i've got spent many friendly hours discussing numerous issues. finally, the full paintings has been conscientiously criticised via Mr. G. Bistwistle, Fellow and imperative Mathematical Lecturer of Pembroke university, Cambridge, to whom my sincerest thank you are due for far time dedicated to the publication and for lots of beneficial suggestions.
