..It is a triumph of his book that these advanced techniques are thereby
brought well within the reach of graduate students of engineering, science
or mathematics.
-- L. E. Fraenkel, Journal of Fluid Mechanics
This well written book deserves, and will I have no doubt get, an
appreciative reception ... there is no doubt that this is a book that no
one whose interests lie in fluid mechanics or in mathematical techniques
generally can afford to overlook.
-- Nature
It is a "must" book for those interested in singular perturbation methods.

L. N. Tao, Applied Mechanics Reviews
It has a clear discursive style and the author's wealth of experience is
apparent in the comments and hints that accompany the solutions of the
problems.
-- A. M. Watts, Quarterly of Applied Mathematics
Long established as one of the most useful references available in the area
of regular and singular perturbation techniques.
-- F. B. Sleator, Mathematical Reviews
This is a book which should be in the possession of all graduate students in
engineering and applied mathematics embarking on research in fluid
mechanics.
-- B. A. Woods, Aeronautical Journal
It is hard to imagine any fluid dynamicist or for that matter any scientist
using asymptotic methods who has not used Milton Van Dyke's book at some
time. Althouth other fine books on similar and related topies have appeared
since publication of "Perturbation Methods" in 1964, Van Dyke's treatment
remains unique and useful.
-- L. Sirovich, Quarterly of Applied Mathematics
