Leviathan and the Air Pump: Hobbes, Boyle, and the Experimental Life
from Princeton Univ Pr

Customer Review:

The authors begin their review of the 17th-century Hobbes-Boyle controversy by declaring their intent to take a strongly pro-Hobbes stance, so it is not surprising that they end by concluding that "Hobbes was right". (About what, is not clear.)

Their stated reason for adapting this biased... more info

Concepts in Thermal Physics
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $73.38

Customer Review:

I love this book. Its funny, clear, exciting, and a good read.
The concepts actually make sense. And it is all cut up into sizable little chapters, with important concepts summarized at the end of each chapter.
This is the best textbook I've ever had.

Physics of Shock Waves and High-Temperature Hydrodynamic Phenomena
from Dover Publications
Price: $28.35

Customer Review:

This book is a classic. I have used it for years. It originally came in two volumes. Someone borrowed my old Volume I and failed to return it. I now have both volumes in one convenient package.

Aerodynamics: Selected topics in the light of their historical development
from Cornell University Press

Customer Review:

This was the first aero text book I bought. It was for a freshman engineering orientation class, September 1968. Even at that time, the professor commented it was more for the history in it then for teaching. The professor was a friend of Von Karman and I think we had to buy it for that reason.more info

Thermodynamics, Kinetic Theory, and Statistical Thermodynamics (3rd Edition) (Addison-Wesley Principles of Physics Series)
from Addison Wesley
Price: $120.36

Customer Review:

Overcomplicated. The entire book. I'm not just talking rigorous... A good example is the two page proof that the number of microstates in n particles, if each can range from 0 to q, whereas the sum of all must add up to q, is n + q - 1 CHOOSE q. This can be proved (just as formally) in about 3... more info

Customer Review:

Chapman and Cowling's outstanding work for kinetic thoery.
This book is regarded as a Classic in this field. However,
the notations are not so farmiliar to me. So I was somewhat perplexed at first.
