Smol'yakov and Tkachenko's book is a very thorough and detailed survey of the response of hot wires and related trans- ducers to a fluctuating flow field. Now that the electronic equipment needed for hot-wire anemometry is so easy to make or cheap to buy, transducer response is the most critical part of the subject - except for the fragility of the sensing element, for which textbooks are no remedy! We hope that this book will be useful to all students...
