Distinguished authors discuss topics in physical oceano- graphy,
transonic aerodynamics, dynamics of vorticity, numerical simulation
of turbulent flows, astrophysical jets, strange attractors,
human-powered flight, and thefluid mechanics of the Old Faithful
geyser and of the Mount St. Helens eruption of 1980. The authors
deal with specific problems, but the emphasis is usually on the way
that re- search is carried out at the edge of understanding, and
often on the role of new techniques, instruments, and re- search
strategies.
This book is compiled of two sections, twenty light hearted and
uplifting works, followed by twenty dark and dismal pieces. The
cannon itself is an allegory of life that is dripping with
symbolism, starting with birth, innocence, the wonder of discovery,
then spirals down through disappointment, frustration, and into
death. All of which vividly through the reader into the rarely
embraced underbelly of our modern American culture.
