This is made the more attractive in that the very minimum of mathematics is used, so that the text is entirely accessible to the undergraduate. At the same time the underlying mathematical structure of the subject is so well understood by the author that, in following his treatment, the Messieurs Jourdain of the chemical engineering profession will find they have been speaking mathematics unawares.
The first chapter discusses the different types of reactor and
