“This book represents an important and interesting contribution to the theory of longwave instabilities and patterns in fluids. The hypotheses are clearly stated and the governing parameters are correctly selected, and the governing equations are solved both analytically and numerically. … The book will be of interest for researchers and graduate students in applied mathematics, physics, and engineering. The authors are to be lauded for presenting an excellent book.” (Ioan Pop, zbMATH 1384.76001, 2018)
