Physical hydrodynamics.

This new edition of 'Physical Hydrodynamics' is a much enriched version of a classical textbook of fluid dynamics published more than 10 years ago by the same authors. It retains the same physically oriented pedagogical perspective based on their teaching of university students in physical...
