Book Title: The Navier-Stokes Equations: A Classification of Flows and Exact Solutions

Author: P.G. Drazin and N. Riley

Selection Statement:

This book gives an excellent summary of exact solutions of viscous incompressible fluids flows. This monograph is definitely not for those who are teaching or learning the subject. The contents are of value to those who have interest in theoretical research. The topics contained within are quite advanced. The authors quickly cover the basic equations of fluid motion and then proceed to survey the range of exact solutions. They bring together exact solutions from all possible sources and present them in a uniform and coherent manner. In summary, this is an excellent and reasonably comprehensive research book.
