It also attempts to place the study of tides in a historical perspective. Starting with a general tutorial on tides, the theme of tides is approached in 9 chapters from many directions. They allow non-experts to pick up a physical intuition and a sense of orders of magnitude in the theory of tides. These carefully prepared lecture notes by leaders in the field include many illustrative figures and drawings. Some even offer a variety of simple back-of the-envelope problems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45274274136215,"sku":"9783642329609","price":3633.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783642329609.webp?v=1769279431","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/tides-in-astronomy-and-astrophysics-9783642329609","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
