""The authors have produced a very readable textbook covering a broad range of topics. There is a wealth of examples illustrating many subjects in fluid mechanics and heat transfer and associated literature references for in-depth study. The book is a worthwhile addition to the library of students and practitoners of the finite element method. The book contains much useful information on the derivation and applicaton of the finite element method in fluid mechanics and heat transfer." J.
