Five Stars Phoenix78 Good book. "An absolutely brilliant textbook" according to lj. Modern Compressible Flow by Anderson is simply one of the best textbooks I have read during my engineering studies. It was the assigned book for my course in compressible flow and I think the highest praise I am able to give is that the book is the reason that I am now fascinated by the subject as a whole and have taken every opportunity to continue with the subject.I suspect that compressible flow could easily come across as very abstract. "a little disappointing" according to Mauro Darida. Well written classic supersonic theory, but "flavor" of numerical methods is given only : I think a college textbook of that price should give more than just flavor. Classic supersonic theory is not complete and needs to be integrated with other prior classic books (i.e. Ferri, Aerodynamics of supersonic flows). Overally, a little disappointing about the quantity of information given.
The second edition of this text on modern compressible flow.
During 1986–1987, while on sabbatical from the University, Dr. Anderson occupied the Charles Lindbergh Chair at the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution. In addition to his position as Professor of Aerospace Engineering, in 1993, he was made a full faculty member of the Committee for the History and Philosophy of Science and in 1996 an affiliate member of the History Department at the University of Maryland.
