"… the book is a researchers and designers delight with a variety of relevant references which can be used for further research or new designs. The book remains unparalleled from its first edition onwards in the Gas Turbine Heat Transfer area."—Dr. S.Kishore Kumar, Turbomachinery Design and Gas Turbine Research Establishment, Bangalore, IndiaPraise for the Previous Edition"Aimed mainly at practicing engineers and researchers, this excellent reference source places the main emphasis on cooling technologies for gas turbine engines..."—Aslib Book Guide, Vol. 66, No. 9, September 2001"The present volume serves as an excellent guide...probably no other has the present book's coherence and uniform excellence...A well-written volume by highly acknowledged and excellent researchers...It is sure to be the standard to which others will refer..."—R.J. Goldstein, University of Minnesota, AIAA Journal, Vol. 40, No. 2, February 2002
