Book Reviews of Aerodynamics of Wings and Bodies (Dover Books on Engineering)
Book Review: Great Book for the Mathematical Minded
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book that should benefit readers with a strong mathematical background at senior graduate or postgraduate level in aerospace engineering studies. Those outside this bracket may find the book a challenge to understand and follow as they can very easily be overwhelmed by the mathematics. The book has stood the test of time and is a must for specialists in aerodynamics or fluid mechanics who need a rigorous treatment of the subject.
All-in-all, a good book for those who can handle advanced mathematical manipulations particularly those carrying out studies at Masters or Doctoral level.
Summary of Aerodynamics of Wings and Bodies (Dover Books on Engineering)
