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.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;861AstrophysicsGravitationPhysicsAstrophysics and Astroparticleshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070History and Philosophical Foundations of Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P29000Astrophysics.Gravitation.Physics.Astrophysics and Astroparticles.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.History and Philosophical Foundations of Physics.521/.1Souchay Jeanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMathis Stéphaneedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtTokieda Tadashiedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK996466693003316Tides in Astronomy and Astrophysics2033433UNISA
