Further reading
Everyone has their favorite college physics text that explains
things to their satisfaction. Our “bible” is P.M. Fishbane
et al.'s Physics for Scientists and Engineers: Extended Version
(Prentice-Hall, 1993). Flowers and Mendoza's Properties of
Matter (Wiley, 1970) is erudite. Massey's Mechanics of
Fluids (Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1979) is exceptionally clear.
The math and physics appendices in S. Pond and
G. L. Pickard's Introduction to Dynamical Oceanography
(Pergamon, 1983) and R. McIlveen's Fundamentals of
Weather and Climate (Stanley Thornes, 1998) are excep-
tionally clear. More advanced physical derivations are set out
in D. J. Furbish's Fluid Physics in Geology (Oxford, 1997).
