Review

'All students of fluid mechanics admire the author as an outstandingly successful contributor and expositor. The present book is an excellent example of his powers and will be especially appreciated by new converts to the field. Not only will they be able to learn the basic ideas of wave motions but also how to marry mathematics and physics in a mutually beneficial way; and they can hone their technique on the large number of sensible and realistic examples included in the text.'
