5.0 out of 5 stars Very satisfied

Bought this used Del Sol Inc via Amazon. Showed up on time and in great shape. They rated it "good" which I would fully agree with. Looks like a book that was used lightly for a semester and returned.

This forth edition starts the only significant changes from previous are historical prospectives added at beginning of the chapters, and more worked and unworked problems. Author admits that the content and organization is largely copied over from previous writings.

This author is a real genius. He covers everything about basical aerodynamics, with rigorous mathematical explanations, but in a way that you'll find very easy to read, never boring. Every formula or every topic is presented with an aim, so you always know why such concepts are being taught.

There are no concessions regarding the math - still, an easy to read, really great book. The quality of wording is clearly one of the author’s main concerns. Contents are as comprehensive as you would expect them from the title. Simplicity of expression is a sign of both true expertise, and of a great educator. To my special delight also the metric system is used.
