Book Overview
The response to the first three editions of Modern Compressible Flow: With Historical Perspective , from students, faculty, and practicing professionals has been overwhelmingly favorable. Therefore, this new edition preserves much of this successful content while adding important new components. It preserves the author's informal writing style that talks to the reader, that gains the readers' interest, and makes the study of compressible flow an enjoyable...

Item is what I wanted and it shipped quickly. The corners came bent though but not a huge issue
Excellent Reference on Compressible Flow
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Anderson has a writing style that is easy to read and understand. This in combination with his expertise in the field makes this book readable and yet still detailed. I recommend this book to those who are starting out learning compressible flows, to those who need a stronger foundation on the physical phenomena and derivations, or to those who just think this sounds like fun.
highly recommended

Clear,concse, written in easy to understand style... would definitely recommend this book for any introductory class on compressible flows.
Great Text
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book is a great graduate or undergraduate text on compressible flow. It covers all the major topics with thorough and elegant proofs of the equations. Anderson is probably one of the best authors who write about extended topics in fluid mechanics (CFD, aerodynamics, compressible flow). I reference this text often.
The best engineering book I have ever read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book was an indispensible study tool for my PhD qualifying exam in high temp gas dynamics. Before reading this book I had never had a formal compressible flow class and I think that it covers the fundamental concepts of frozen compressible flow very well. If you don't have an excellent understanding of normal and oblique shocks, expansion fans, nozzle flow, blunt body flow and shock tubes after reading this book, you haven't been paying attention!
