Young, Munson and Okiishi's A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics is designed to cover the standard topics in a basic fluid mechanics course in a streamlined manner that meets the learning needs of students better than the encyclopedic style of traditional texts. The text lucidly presents basic analysis techniques and addresses practical concerns and applications with a strong visual approach. This approach helps students connect the math and theory to the physical world and practical applications and apply these connections to solving problems.

This adapted edition of the book comes with updates that clarify, enhance, and expand certain ideas and concepts. It includes new sections on Finite Control Volume Analysis, Compressible Flow, Equilibrium of Moving Fluids, Most Efficient Channel Section. The new examples and problems build upon the understanding of engineering applications of fluid mechanics and the edition has been completely updated to use SI units.

JOHN I. HOCHSTEIN, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Memphis, received a BE from Stevens Institute of Technology in 1973, an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University in 1979, and his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Akron in 1984. He has been on the faculty of the mechanical engineering department at the University of Memphis since 1991 and served as department chair from 1996 to 2014.

ANDREW L . GERHART, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Lawrence Technological University, received his BSME degree from the University of Evansville in 1996, his MSME from the University of Wyoming, and his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of New Mexico.

PHILIP M. GERHART, former Dean of Engineering and Computer Science and Professor of Mechanical and Civil Engineering at the University of Evansville, received his BSME degree from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in 1968 and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1969 and 1971. Before becoming Chair of Mechanical and Civil Engineering at the University of Evansville, he was on the Mechanical Engineering faculty at the University of Akron from 1971 to 1984.
