Excerpt from Wing TheoryMathematical wing theory is of great practical importance and at the same time of considerable theoretical depth and interest. When writing a book on a subject such as this, one is faced, inevitably, with a number of con¿icting requirements. There is the desirability of presenting a com prehensive account of the theory as against the practical need for keeping the undertaking within reasonable bounds, there are the demands of mathematical rigour involving at times the introduction of subtle techniques which might be a heavy burden for those who are interested in the subject chie¿y for practical reasons, there is the question whether to describe only the most efficient method for the solution of a particular problem, although an earlier and less efficient method provides a better insight into the topic under consideration, and so on. We have tried to resolve all these difficulties by compromise, inclining sometimes to one side and sometimes to the other. We shall not try to justify our choice in detail, the result constitutes the present book, and it is left to the reader to decide whether we have found a reasonable solution to the problem.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
