First concise textbook on Large-Eddy Simulation, a very important method in scientific computing and engineering

From the foreword to the third edition written by Charles Meneveau: '... this meticulously assembled and significantly enlarged description of the many aspects of LES will be a most welcome addition to the bookshelves of scientists and engineers in fluid mechanics, LES practitioners, and students of turbulence in general.'
