From the reviews:
"The aim of the book is to give an introduction to Continuum Mechanics. … the textbook can be used in advanced semesters courses mainly at mechanical or civil engineering faculties. The advantage of this textbook is that it is relatively simple. … So, the textbook can be recommended for students who will study the classical parts of continuum mechanics and who are interested in the interlink between theory, experiments, and practical solutions." (Holm Altenbach, Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Vol. 88 (6), 2008)
