What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Nevertheless this book covers the basics in a clear and easily accessible manner and would serve as a valuable study aid and as a companion text to the number of excellent, more specialised textbooks in this area such as Gas Turbine Theory by Savaranamutto, Rogers, Cohen and Straznicky (Prentice Hall. 2008 - Sixth edition) and Space Propulsion Analysis and Design edited by R. W. Humble et al. (McGraw-Hill Publishing Company. 1995).” (The Aeronautical Journal, 1 June 2014)
