Whether used as a primer, a review, or an educational escape from boredom,
Engineering for the Easily Amused provides a brief but satisfying look into the world of Fluid Mechanics.
Delve deeper into the subject than you could with a general STEM book while maintaining an attainable yet
challenging presentation of the material. This book allows anyone with a willingness to learn and a modest
understanding of algebra to discover the principles in action that answer questions such as:

• Why exactly does buoyancy make things float?
• How does simple math predict how fluids will move?
• What makes supersonics so special?

With a few well-placed examples, conceptual analogies, and worked-through problems, you'll get a short
glimpse at some of the same material an undergraduate engineering student would study, but with no
need for the months of prerequisites.
