Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This dynamic book offers a clear insight into the field of fluid mechanics, taking an approach toward analyzing fluid flows that develops each subject from the theory of its basic laws to the illustration of actual engineering applications. The Fourth Edition features the most up-to-date applications of essential concepts as well as new coverage of the latest topics in the field today.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Introduction -- The basic equations -- The Bernoulli equation -- Momentum theorems -- Similitude -- Elements of potential flow -- Analysis of flow in pipes and channels -- Flow over external surfaces -- Compressible fluids - one-dimensional flow -- Elements of two-dimensional gas dynamics -- Flow in open channels -- Turbomachines -- Some design aspects of turbomachines.
