Readership: Graduates and researchers in Applied Mathematics
Sylvie Benzoni-Gavage, Université Claude Bernard Lyon I, France, and Denis Serre, ENS de Lyon, France
"With an extensive bibliography including classical and recent papers both in PDE analysis and in applications (mainly to gas dynamics), this text will be valuable to graduates and researchers in both hyperbolic PDEs and compressible fluid dynamics." - L'enseignement Mathematique
