1.		The Properties of Gases and Liquids from McGraw-Hill Professional Price: $82.72 Customer Review: This is a dense book, necessary to every one who handles with fluid and its transformations, like technicians, process engineers, fluid flow measurement guys, etc., who needs information about very equation of states and when using each one, estimating some physical properties, etc.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Physics of Shock Waves and High-Temperature Hydrodynamic Phenomena from Dover Publications Price: $23.28 Customer Review: I've wasted many credit hours taking physics courses all the way up through grad school and never learned a damned thing! This book reignited my interest in physics. It explains how to think about the physics and what things mean as opposed to the typical nonsense of here's the equation and the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.	[no image]	The Illustrated Guide to Aerodynamics from TAB Books Customer Review: If you want to build or just understand the dynamics of flight, including all the hard math but in an easy to read and understand format, then this book is a must have for your bookshelf. This book totally sucked me into it, not unlike a novel, it was that easy to read and understand. Whether... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Hypersonic and High Temperature Gas Dynamics (AIAA Education) (Aiaa Education Series) from AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics & Ast Price: $67.73 Customer Review: Even though the expected date of arrival was 5 or 6 weeks ahead, it was shipped less than one week after the request and it arrived to Europe (from US) next week. So the total waiting time was 2 weeks instead of the 5 or 6 weeks it anticipated. I'm happy with he conditions the book arrived, so it... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Elements of Gas Dynamics from Dover Publications Price: $16.27 Customer Review: I used this book during an undergraduate research project in the UK in 1971 on gas discharge from a resonance tube and found it provided the heart and soul of the topic. While slightly challenging for a senior undergraduate student it inspires motivation to persevere with the theoretical foundations... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Introduction to Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion from Springer Price: $68.00 Customer Review: Good solid introduction to plasma physics. Fairly general introduction geared towards advanced undergraduates and grad students. There are better books which concentrate on applications, both of which I own. Sturrock for geophysical and earth plasma physics and Kulsrud for astrophysics.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Statistical Mechanics: Entropy, Order Parameters and Complexity (Oxford Master Series in Physics) from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $39.49 Customer Review: I'm studying for my final physics exams and - after having a look at a half-dozen or so other statistical mechanics book in the library - (none got me really involved) I have just to say that I'm really glad that I decided to buy this book! It's really a joy and fun to read! I think that the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

11.		Computational Gasdynamics from Cambridge University Press Price: $65.49 Customer Review: This book is a detailed account of the Eulerian numerical methods used for the solution of hyperbolic pde's such as the standard scalar conservation laws of fluid mechanics and gas dynamics. The book directly investigates gas dynamiocs rather than fluid dynamics although it has application there as... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		The Physics of Astrophysics Volume II: Gas Dynamics from University Science Books Price: $214.41 Customer Review: I was very dissapointed to see a rating on this book of only two little stars, so I've decided to express my opinion as well, for I believe this book deserves a much better qualification. The book gives an excellent overview in many of the most important aspects of the theory of gas dynamics as... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		Bose-Einstein Condensation in Dilute Gases from Cambridge University Press Price: $35.01 Customer Review: Of the three main books on laser cooling and BEC that are on the market right now (Laser Cooling by Metcalf and Atom Optics by Meystre) this one is by far the best. There are a lot of details here, but unfortunately a lot more are still left out. Chapter 8, and sections 11.3, and 14.3 in particular... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
