Excellent Aerospace Engineering Reference May 29, 2001
By George P. Burdell
This excellent book is full of examples and equations to help students relate to the fundamental concepts in an introductory aerodynamics class. The book is especially useful for reference, as it explains the derivations and many forms of complex equations such as the continuity equation. Furthermore, there are lots of examples of real-world design situations and historical backgrounds. Overall, one of the best books I have used in my undergraduate aerospace engineering curriculum.

Excellent book! Apr 06, 2000
Great book for first and second semester aerodynamics. Especially the sections on supersonics and hypersonics. Links the technical and historical aspects of aerodynamics to give a very good global perspective of the subject. Anderson also provides "roadmaps" which tend to help the reader stay on track as to where the discussion is going. Those are especially helpful for technical books such as this one.

My Most-Used Aeronautics Reference Book Mar 10, 2007
By BookWormJDC
Over 5 years as an aerospace engineer at Boeing and Lockheed Martin, I have used this book far more than any other for aeronautics. This is not only a good textbook, but an excellent reference, and one of the few technical books I have found worth reading cover-to-cover. Many engineers simply say "look at Anderson" to find whatever answers you need.

Very good introductory textbook Jul 24, 2004
By Can Kurtulus
This is by far the best textbook I had on any subject of my aerospace eng. undergrad degree. Presentation of concepts is concise and examples are clear and easy to follow. The text is enriched by the inclusion of design boxes which explain a few key areas in the design of various interesting aircraft. If you don't like your textbook for whatever reason, don't hesitate to get this one and it'll certainly help you understand this subject well.
