Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Vectors in three-dimensional space (1978) is a book concerned with physical quantities defined in ordinary" 3-space. It was written by J.S.R.Chisholm, an English mathematical physicist, and published by Cambridge University Press. According to the author, such physical quantities are studied in Newtonian mechanics, fluid mechanics, theories of elasticity and plasticity, non-relativistic quantum mechanics, and many parts of solid state physics. The author further states that "the vector concept developed in two different ways: in a wide variety of physical applications, vector notation and techniques became, by the middle of this century, almost universal on the other hand, pure mathematicians reduced vector algebra to an axiomatic system, and introduced wide generalisations of the concept of a three-dimensional ''vector space''.""
