版权页： 插图： We now consider what features in real plane waves of sound prevent these impossible deformations of waveforms in general,and then analyse,taking those features into account,the real wave generated by impulsive motion of a piston into fluid.Note that the only features which can modify our conclusions on simple-wave propagation are dissipative processes,since the Riemann theory（section 2.8）underlying our conclusions is exact for waves subject only to nondissipative processes.Out of the various dissipative processes considered in sections1.13 and 2.7,we must find therefore whether any can produce effects big enough and fast enough to annul a powerful and rapid tendency for transformations of waveform like those between figures 31 and 32.

价格还行，不过没想到是很多年前的版本，字体很不习惯
范围广、相互融合的好求，但不够深入，只是好的教材。
我觉得这是本基础书籍，必看的。做流体的
经典的流体专业书籍啊……
经典！很早就有了复印本，现在终于有经济实力购买了。关于流体波的重要书籍。
