Don S. Lemons is Professor Emeritus of Physics at Bethel College, Kansas, and has served as an assistant editor of the American Journal of Physics. He is a member of the American Physical Society and his research focuses primarily on plasma physics.
'This short book provides an introduction to dimensional analysis, covering its history, methods and formalisation, and shows its application to a number of physics and engineering problems. ... Aimed primarily at physics and engineering students in their first university courses, it can also be useful to experienced students and professionals. Being concise and providing problems with solutions at the end of each chapter, the book is ideal for self study.' Virginia Greco, CERN Courier 'Dimensional, or unit, analysis is a useful tool for finding relations between variables that describe a physical system. Although it has applications across all fields of physics, it is not a regular part of a typical undergraduate physics curriculum. ... Don Lemons addresses that gap. ... His latest book is written in a casual style, as if he were talking to his students and giving them step-by-step guidance. Lemons shares his personal experience applying dimensional analysis to problems. For instance, he discusses the hydraulic jump, a phenomenon one can see in a kitchen sink. ... Such anecdotes make dimensional analysis more accessible and less intimidating. ... Lemons's book is a well-written entry-level text that will be of value to curious undergraduates in physics and engineering.' Hong Lin, Physics Today
