Summary
The theme of this book is an exposition of what we know about the physics underlying the onset of instability in liquid sheets and jets. Wave motion and breakup phenomena subsequent to the onset of instability are also carefully explained. Physical concepts are established through rigorous mathematics, accurate numerical analyses and comparison of theory with experiment
