Description: White's Fluid Mechanics is praised for its thorough and accurate approach, student friendly writing style, and its concise yet accessible coverage. The electronic version of the text presents these features and more in a CD-ROM with expanded descriptions of certain tables and diagrams through links. The E-Text enhances the text's elegant and solid description of the fundamentals. This fourth edition includes the addition of over 500 new problems, divided categories of "applied problems," "comprehensive applied problems," "design projects," "word problems" and "FE (fundamentals of engineering exam) problems." The book also has an updated, modern design and includes many useful pedagogical and motivational aids such as a perforated "Key Equations Card," boxed equations, and opening chapter photos. Review: Must Have for any Fluid Dynamics Student Professor White has always had masterful contributions to the field of fluid mechanics. This book is no exception. More geared for learning the fundamentals, this book does a truly excellent job. I highly recommend it for any student learning fluids. I checked this book out of our library for three consecutive semesters it was so useful. Finally I just bought a copy for my own collection. Great book. Review: Best book for Introductory Fluid Mechanics This is the best book available for intro to fluids. The chapter on control volume analysis is an excellent introduction to control volume techinques. The problems at the end of chapter gives suffcient practice to apply these techniques to real world situations. The chapter on Compressible flow is also very nicely written. During my undergrad studies, this is the book which kindled my interest in fluid mechanics and subsequently to acoustics. My sincere thanks to the author for introducing the subject so clearly. Review: Good book with one exception. I got this book for a Intermediate Fluid Mechanics course. It is not a bad book, the derivations are not extremely complicated nor too rigorous. The reason why I don't give it 5 stars is that the chapter 5 (dimensional analysis) is horrible. Review: A Fluid Book Professor Frank M. White is one of the few double professors who is also an effective author and proficient teacher. As an undergrad I took an introductory fluids course taught by the author at the University of Rhode Island, and I found him to be an extraordinary teacher who could explain complex topics in a straightforward, unassuming manner. The same style of teaching is carried over to his written works, this book in particular. A relative of mine is enrolled in an engineering college which uses this book for the introductory fluid mechanics course. I had an opportunity to read the chapters on dimensional analysis as well as potential flow and turbomachinery, and I can say that the style remains the same, that is, it is written for students with ample examples and readable text. Most of the book is still very familiar to me since the text resided on my desk for 13 years when I worked as mechanical engineer for a major shipbuilder. As an engineer working in the marine design industry and later in computational fluid dynamics, I found the fundamentals presented in my earlier version of the book relevant for review and reference throughout my career. There are only four teachers I have encountered, while obtaining three degrees in two institutions, who are unconcerned with impressing their colleagues but instead possess a strong explicit enthusiasm for and absolute understanding of the topics that they teach. Professor White was the first of these educators, and I only wish that I had appreciated the scope and style of his teachings when I was an undergrad. I have over sixty textbooks which I have read for college level courses over a 25 year period. The most clear, comprehensive and understandable text unquestionably has been Professor White's fluid mechanics book. Review: Good sel
