Error-free - the authors have taken great pains to check the accuracy of all calculations throughout the text. Readability - the book has established a reputation for clarity and the ease with which students can grasp the material with minimal input from the instructor. Supporting illustrations further support and facilitate student comprehension. Basic concepts are explained with physical arguments. A physical/visual approach aids the student in gaining an intuitive understanding of the principles of fluid dynamics.It contains numerous worked-out examples in the text. Students can use the examples as a basis for solving problems. Design problems. Applying theoretical principles in practical designs helps develop the student's engineering creativity. Appropriate coverage of mathematics: the text's treatment of mathematics is consistent with the capability of the typical undergraduate student. For example, the concept of irrotationality and the Bernoulli equation in irrotational flow is presented with a minimum use of partial differential equations. This concept is made more visual and comprehensible to the student. More advanced mathematical formulations are available in the text for use at the instructor's discretion.
