In questo libro, con il consueto stile di scrittura semplice ma allo stesso tempo estremamente rigoroso, che ha sempre caratterizzato i testi dell'autore, le tre discipline di Meccanica dei Fluidi, Termodinamica e Statistica sono presentate per la prima volta in un contesto unitario, come è corretto aspettarsi per un primo approccio allo studio dei sistemi continui formati da un grandissimo numero di particelle.
La finalità del libro è quella di presentare i concetti di base della Meccanica dei Continui a studenti che frequentano sia corsi di laurea che corsi di dottorato in Matematica, Fisica e Ingegneria.
Il libro è basato sulle lezioni attualmente tenute dall'autore presso l’Università di Bari, ed è progettato in modo da rappresentare un testo di riferimento il più possibile moderno, completo e autosufficiente per i corsi semestrale di Cosmologia, Astrofisica o Fisica Astroparticellare che compaiono nel piano di studi della Laurea Magistrale in Fisica e in Astronomia.
