		Timoshenko’s autobiography was written in Paris in 1963 and was translated into English with his help five years later when he reached the ripe old age of 90.
		Timoshenko was born in the Ukraine in 1878, five years after the birth of my father.
		Certainly Timoshenko was always the engineer, and being at that stage engaged in the quantitative solution of problems, he was much impressed by the generality which was established by using numerical, finite difference solutions.

		Stephen Timoshenko was a pioneering mechanical engineer who founded the field of strength of materials.
		Timoshenko emigrated as the Bolsheviks tightened their hold on power, arriving in the U.S. in 1922.
		Timoshenko developed the mathematical basis for calculating the strength of all materials, and his equations provide the foundation for all modern designs in mechanical and civil engineering.

		Stephen Timoshenko himself had withdrawn into retirement long before I discovered that I had an interest in his field, and I never encountered him in person.
		Timoshenko replied-"How many publications that have appeared in the literature do you think the world was waiting for?" One outcome was that I proceeded to publish too many papers, but it is interesting that many of the papers I did not think much of had some impact, whereas many that I liked had no impact.
		The first recipient was Stephen P. Timoshenko himself, an individual who contributed enormously to the prestige and strength of mechanics in this country and a legend whom I, as a young student in mechanics, looked upon as a special hero, one to be admired and emulated.

		Timoshenko explores the early roots of the discipline from the great monuments and pyramids of ancient Egypt through the temples, roads, and fortifications of ancient Greece and Rome.
		The author fixes the formal beginning of the modern science of the strength of materials with the publication of Galileo's book, "The Sciences," and traces the rise and development as well as industrial and commercial applications of the fledgling science from the seventeenth century through to the twentieth.
		Timoshenko fleshes out the bare bones of mathematical theory with lucid demonstrations of important equations and brief biographies of highly influential mathematicians, including: Euler, Lagrange, Navier, Thomas Young, Saint-Venant, Franz Neumann, Maxwell, Kelvin, Rayleigh, Klein, Prandtl, and many others.

		In this updated version of Timoshenko's classical vibration book, it seems Weaver's role is generally bounded by only rearranging the topics to a more clear form that makes the book easier to read.
		Though he introduced some numerical techniques, especially for nonlinear systems and a new chapter on the finite element formulation of vibration problems, these can't be considered as noticeable additions.
