(Techniques for treating regular and singular perturbation...)
Techniques for treating regular and singular perturbations are illustrated by application to problems of fluid motion. In particular, the method of matched asymptotic expansions is applied to the aerodynamics of airfoils and wings, and to viscous flow at high and low Reynolds numbers. Other topics include the methods of strained coordinates and of multiple scales, and the improvement of series.

(Over 400 beautiful black-and-white photographs, collected...)
Over 400 beautiful black-and-white photographs, collected from around the world, illustrate the great diversity of fluid motion. Flows ranging from creeping to hypersonic speeds, in both the laboratory and Nature, are observed directly, or made visible using smoke, ink, bubbles, particles, shadographs, schlieren, interferometry, and other techniques. Succinct captions describe the essential features of each flow.
