Preface
My involvemcnt with Pijush Kundu’s FluidMechunics first began in April 1991 with a letter from him asking mc to consider his book for adoption in the first year graduatc
courSe 1 had been teaching for 25 ycars. That started a correspondence and, in fact I did adopt the book lor the following acadcmic ycar. The correspondence related
to improving the book by enhancing or clarifying various points. T would not have taken the time to do that iT I hadn’t thought this was thc best book at the first-year
graduate level. .By the end of that ycar we werc alrcady discussing a swond edition and whether 1 would have a role in it. By early 1992, howcvcr, it was clcar that T
had a crushing administrative burden at the University or Pennsylvania and could not undertake any time-consuming projects for the next several years. My wile and 1 met
Pijush and Shikha for the first time in December 1992. They were a charming, erudite sophisticated couple with two brilliant children. We immediately relt a bond orwarmth
and €riendship with them. Shikha was a Leacher like my wife so the four of us had a great deal in common. A couple or years later we were shocked to hear that Pijush had
died suddenly and unexpectedly. It saddened me gcatly bccause I M been looking forward to working with Yijush on the second edition after my term as department
chainnan ended in mid-1997. For the next year and a half, howcvcr, scrious family health problems detoured any plans. Discussions on this cdition resumed in July ol
and wcrc concludcd in the Spring or 2000 when my work really started. This 1999 hook remains thc principal work product of Pijush K. Kundu, especially the lengthy
chapters on Gravity Waves, Instability, and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, his areas or expertise. I have addcd ncw material to all of the other chapters, often providing an
alternative point of view. Specifically, vcctor field derivatives have been generalized as have been streamfunctions. Additional material has been added to thc chaptcrs on
laminar flows and boundary layers
