One of the best and most complete textbooks I've ever come across for Classical Mechanics. It's outrageous to even think of using Goldstein's book, when you have a golden standard like this one for Advanced Undergraduate and Graduate courses.
What this book does best is that it provides the reader with excellent geometrical insight, which helps develop a real intuition for the subject and also spot what's missing. This helps while dealing with theories like Relativity and Non Linearity, to which this textbook also provides excellent introductions.

Actually loved it. Inflicted me with an obsession over inverted pendulums lol
