Product Description

Review
‘This book gives an excellent introduction to fluid dynamics … many interesting and important photographs of fluid flows are included in order to help the students who do not have an opportunity of observing flow phenomena in a laboratory. The book also contains exercises at the end of each chapter. In comparison with many currently available books, I find this book by Batchelor especially stimulating and useful for students of applied mathematics and engineering.’ L. Debnath, Zentralblatt MATH

Product Description
First published in 1967, Professor Batchelor’s classic text on fluid dynamics is still one of the foremost texts in the subject. The careful presentation of the underlying theories of fluids is still timely and applicable, even in these days of almost limitless computer power. This re-issue should ensure that a new generation of graduate students see the elegance of Professor Batchelor’s presentation.

5.0 out of 5 stars A classic in the field, 23 Nov 1999
By A Customer
This is possibly the best introduction to fluid mechanics for those that want to develop a deep insight into the area. The mathematical treatment is clearly presented, and the physical arguments insightful. Possibly not recommended for those that want a simple, quick introduction.
