The Handbook of Mathematical Fluid Dynamics is a compendium of essays that
provides a survey of the major topics in the subject. Each article traces
developments, surveys the results of the past decade, discusses the current
state of knowledge and presents major future directions and open problems.
Extensive bibliographic material is provided. The book is intended to be useful
both to experts in the field and to mathematicians and other scientists who wish
to learn about or begin research in mathematical fluid dynamics. The Handbook
illuminates an exciting subject that involves rigorous mathematical theory
applied to an important physical problem, namely the motion of fluids.
