Product Review
Vogel has a deep knowledge of hydrodynamics and knows how to teach the subject. Many phenomena are explained more clearly in his book than in common fluid dynamic texts. Beautifully produced. (Jerry GollubPhysics Today )
This edition includes more of everything: more physical concepts, more biological examples, more sources for additional information. Vogel finds a way to make sense of even the least intuitive concepts. (Mike MayAmerican Scientist )
Praise for the previous edition: "Required reading for students of biology at all levels of career development. (Paul W. WebbScience )
For biologists who want to come to the beginning of a quantitative understanding of a wide variety of adaptations, for general readers who want to see how fluid mechanics works in a varied and often surprising context this book, full of data, rich in up-to-date and well-appraised references, is a first-class opportunity.
