REVIEWS:
An Album of Fluid Motion


Self-published, designed handsomely within the family, this collection needs and will enduringly reward many owners. What technical library can be without it?
-- Philip Morrison, Scientific American

All teachers of fluid mehanics should have a copy of this 'album' and should use it first to enlarge their own understanding and then that of their students.
-- G. K. Batchelor, Journal of Fluid Mechanics

This book is a unique publishing event in the field of fluid mechanics. Its price is low and its quality is so high that instructors can recommend it without reservation as a supplemental text at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
-- Sheila Widnall, Journal of Applied Mechanics

This compilation, aptly entitled an "album" ... is a remarkable and magnificent achievement.
-- Charles Thurlow III, Chemical Engineering

The educator finds beautiful and important illustrations for his lectures in fluid mechanics, and the student should also want to own the book.
-- N. Rott, Zeitshrift fuer Angewandte Mathematik und Physik

Everybody with an interest in fluid dynamics, from freshman to expert, will enjoy and benefit from this book; everybody can afford to buy it; everybody should.
-- Peter Bradshaw, Contemporary Physics

An Album of Fluid Motion is a lovely book and a rare bargain. It should be part of any phyics library and many personal collections.
-- Jerry P. Golub, American Journal of Physics

Neophyte or expert, student or practioner, everyone will be enchanted by this book. I have seen a delighted reaction to it in those unfamiliar with the study of fluid motion, and I have also been approached by scientists with fingers pointed at pictures in the Album to prove a technical point.
-- Raul Conti, Journal of the Astronautical Sciences

I cannot imagine a fluid dynamicist without this wonderful book. It should be requred reading for al graduate students in the fluid thermal engineering field.

-- R. A. Granger, Ocean Engineering
