Similarity Solutions of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

The method of similarity solutions for solving nonlinear partial differential equations has produced a plentiful harvest of results since Birkhoff called attention to it in 1950. The general references in the bibliography at the
end of this book cite hundreds of successful individual works. In spite of this success, the method is still not as widely known as equally fruitful methods for solving linear partial differential equations, e.g., separation of variables or Laplace transforms. To popularize the method of similarity solutions, to teach it as a practical technique, to make it a part of the daily armament of the technologist, is the goal of this book.
