Hi, I'm a undergraduate student, and I want a couple of advices to learn analytical mechanics. My university program on that subject begins with variational calculus, Lagrangian Mechanics, Hamiltonian mechanics...in the middle central forces and finish with canonical transformations, Hamilton-Jacobi, Liouville theorem. Alternatives to Goldstein?. A great book then I could find was "Classical Mechanics written by Taylor", but that book does not cover Hamilton-Jacobi...a deeper book and that topics it's "Mathematical methods of Classical Mechanics by Arnold" but I guess its a graduate book.

So..Do you know a book or PDF's iwhich covers that topics and finally a book or PDF's with solved problems?

Thanks.
