Differences between a configuration space and a phase space

Posted by sepiraph on November 12, 2002 at 23:39:43:

I was trying to find the definitions and differences between a configuration space and a phase space. How these relate to ideas in classical mechanics, canonical transformation, and quantum mechanics. Any help would be appreciated.
