Fluid dynamics of animal locomotion: Reserve book list

General fluid dynamics:
      1. Acheson, D.J. Elementary Fluid Dynamics
                  Well-written basic text emphasizing incompressible fluids.
     2. Batchelor, G.K. Introduction to Fluid Dynamics
                   
A classic text , again emphasizing incompressible flow.
     3. Lighthill, M.J. An Informal Introduction to Theoretical Fluid Mechanics
                    An unusual treatment of selected topics in incompressible flow, with
                     some discussion of animal  locomotion.
     4.  Meyer, Richard E. Introduction to Mathematical Fluid Dynamics
                    The brief text emphasizes mathematical rigour as well as the physical ideas.
     5. Saffman,  P.G.  Vortex Dynamics
                     A good reference for vortex kinematics and dynamics.
Mathematical aspects of animal locomotion:
      These monographs emphasize fluid analysis of locomotion problems.
      1.  Blake, R.W. Fish Locomotion
      2. Childress, S. Mechanics of Swimming and Flying
      3. Lighthill, M.J.  Biofluiddynamics
 Biophysical aspects of animal locomotion:
    Written for the biophysicist as well as the  general reader, the emphasis is on the biology and
     the physical principles involved in problems of locomotion both in and out of fluids.
