Book Reviews of Modern Compressible Flow: With Historical Perspective. John D. Anderson, JR
Book Review: Fantastic Book!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Anderson takes a very interesting topic and explains it in a very detailed yet entertaining way. The text isn't boring to read... ! Let me repeat that this engineering text is fun to read. The historical inserts in each section were also quite interesting. For the most part the problems were doable and have some sort of application incorporated in them. Pictures, diagrams and graphs are all very useful and relevent. I was grateful to have this book as my gas dynamics undergaduat book, but I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn, or study compressible flow.
Summary of Modern Compressible Flow: With Historical Perspective. John D. Anderson, JR
Anderson's book provides the most accessible approach to compressible flow for Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering students and professionals. In keeping with previous versions, the 3rd edition uses numerous historical vignettes that show the evolution of the field. New pedagogical features - "Roadmaps" showing the development of a given topic, and "Design Boxes" giving examples of design decisions - will make the 3rd edition even more practical and user-friendly than before. The 3rd edition strikes a careful balance between classical methods of determining compressible flow, and modern numerical and computer techniques (such as CFD) now used widely in industry and research. A new book website will contain all problem solutions for instructors.Engineering Books
