Fox and McDonald's Introduction to Fluid Mechanics

Rate this book
"This text is written for an introductory course in fluid mechanics. Our approach to the subject emphasizes the physical concepts of fluid mechanics and methods of analysis that begin from basic principles. One primary objective of this text is to help users develop an orderly approach to problem solving. Thus, we always start from governing equations, state assumptions clearly, and try to relate mathematical results to corresponding physical behavior. We emphasize the use of control volumes to maintain a practical problem-solving approach that is also theoretically inclusive"--

Just finished reading and working problems from chapters 1 through 7 in preparation for grad classes. Very clearly written. Excellent intro to the basics. I'm excited that these concepts are making more sense now than when I was an undergrad.

All I've got to say is "fluid mechanics is NOT my subject! "
Based on the fact that i just don't like it... I wouldn't know if this is to be recommended or not.
