Perhaps the most balanced, well-written account of fundamental fluid dynamics ever published. Mises' classic avoids the formidable mathematical structure of fluid dynamics, while conveying — by often unorthodox methods — a full understanding of the physical phenomena and mathematical concepts of aeronautical engineering. "An outstanding textbook." — Scientific, Medical and Technical Books. Unabridged reprint of the 1945 edition.
