Review
From its genesis, the text has aimed to offer a balanced approach rather than the more narrow coverage of those written for applied mathematicians, or for readers interested exclusively in engineering applications. Even so, the author is cautious about mixing engineering and geophysical fluid dynamics, generally separating them in different chapters. – Book News, June 2004

Excellent introductory graduate level text book
This is an excellent introductory textbook for a first graduate course in fluid mechanics. The material is presented in a logical and cogent manner.

An excellent introduction in Fluid Mechanics
One of the best introduction books in this
field. This new edition has a chapter on
Biofluid Mechanics. Over all, it is interesting
and fun to read.

It has never arrived – I want at least my money back
That’s the very worst shop I ever made using the internet. The book was supposed to arrive in December 26, and it has never arrived.

Not a great choice for students
This book is not a great resource for a student. There are few examples, and the exercises at the end of each chapter are short and not very diverse.

Excellent book, but the new edition lacks in graphical style
Kundu’s book is an excellent textbook for fluid mechanics at an intermediate level. However, this new eddition has a lot of graphical problems which, if doens’t make you regret of…
