<p><b>A groundbreaking textbook on twenty-first-century </b><b>fluids and elastic solids and their applications</b><br><br>Kip Thorne and Roger Blandford¿s monumental <i>Modern Classical Physics</i> is now available in five stand-alone volumes that make ideal textbooks for individual graduate or advanced undergraduate courses on statistical physics; optics; elasticity and fluid dynamics; plasma physics; and relativity and cosmology. Each volume teaches the fundamental concepts, emphasizes modern, real-world applications, and gives students a physical and intuitive understanding of the subject.<br><br><i>Elasticity and Fluid Dynamics </i>provides an essential introduction to these subjects. Fluids and elastic solids are everywhere¿from Earth¿s crust and skyscrapers to ocean currents and airplanes. They are central to modern physics, astrophysics, the Earth sciences, biophysics, medicine, chemistry, engineering, and technology, and this centrality has intensified in recent years¿so much
