About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"The aim of the present work is to present a concise … introduction to the field of transport theory with a fairly tight focus on a few recently successful analytical solution techniques. … the book is useful as a reference for scientists and engineers working in the fields of rarefied gas dynamics and aerosol mechanics, of working in any applied discipline in which gas-surface interactions can be expected to play a significant role." (Claudia-Veronika Meister, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1141, 2008)
