Turbulence is widely recognized as one of the outstanding problems
of the physical sciences, but it still remains only partially
understood despite having attracted the sustained efforts of many
leading scientists for well over a century. In A Voyage Through
Turbulence we are transported through a crucial period of the
history of the subject via biographies of twelve of its great
personalities, starting with Osborne Reynolds and his pioneering
work of the 1880s. This book will provide absorbing reading for
every scientist, mathematician and engineer interested in the
history and culture of turbulence, as background to the intense
challenges that this universal phenomenon still presents.
