Batchelor G.K. An Introduction to Fluid Dynamics

Cambridge University Press, 1967, 1973, 2000, First Cambridge Mathematical Library edition 2000 Reprinted 2001, 2002. XVIII, 615 p. — ISBN 0 521 66396 2 (paperback).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.Preface page
