Life in Moving Fluids

The book explores the intersection of fluid mechanics and biology, providing insights into how fluid flow influences biological design. In this revised edition, the author updates key concepts and expands on topics like jet propulsion, swimming, and blood flow, while also introducing new sections on acceleration reactions and Murray's law. With a blend of humor and clarity, it serves as both a reference and a guide for biologists and general readers, complete with an extensive bibliography for those interested in conducting their own experiments.
