'This book gives a solid discussion of a broad range of topics related to granular flow, with much emphasis on theoretical modeling. The authors focus on continuum models, although there is some attention to discrete models as well. Overall, the book is well-written and provides a thorough overview of the current state of granular flow research.' Kimberly H. Henthorn, Chemical Engineering Education
