Book Description:

Sir George Stokes established the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity describing the velocity of a small sphere through a viscous fluid. He published no books, and these collected papers (issued between 1880 and 1905) constitute the main surviving record of the work of this outstanding mathematician.
