Reviews
'In the reviewer's opinion, this book provides a fundamental and comprehensive presentation of the mathematical and physical theory of multiphase flow, pointing out several important practical applications. [It] is excellently written and readable. Numerical solutions are given graphically and in tabular form. A large list of 66 papers and books is included at the end of the book. The book will be useful to a wide range of specialists working in the area of flows in porous media, such as design engineers, physicists, chemical engineers, and also to researchers interested in the applied mathematical theory of flows in porous media. It can be also recommended as a text for seminars and courses, as well as for independent study. Some chapters of the book present the state-of-the-art reviews, and they provide a solid background for future research.'
