Krehl P.O.K. History of Shock Waves, Explosions and Impact: A Chronological and Biographical Reference
Sрringer, 2009, 1288 pages

This unique and encyclopedic reference work describes the evolution of the physics of mode shock wave and detonation from the earlier and classical percussion. The history of this complex process is first reviewed in a general survey. Subsequently, the subject is treated in more detail and the book is richly illustrated in the form of a picture gallery. This book is ideal for everyone professionally interested in shock wave phenomena.

To provide the reader with quickly accessible and extensive information, the book is divided into six chapters:
Chapter 1 – INTRODUCTION – determines the position of the subject of this book in the general framework of natural science.
Chapter 2 – GENERAL SURVEY – provides some general remarks on the historical background of shock and detonation, illustrates the interrelations between the different disciplines, and discloses their genealogy and genesis from the principle of percussion.
Chapter 3 – CHRONOLOGY – illuminates the historical evolution of percussion, shock wave physics and detonics in terms of milestones. It attempts to specify each contributor’s affiliation and the motivation of their research in tabular form. It also contains numerous cross-references to similar
studies performed elsewhere, referring the reader to other milestones listed in the chapter and to corresponding illustrations shown in the next chapter. Many milestones have been provided with comments made from the present point of view and with more recent literature on the subject.
Chapter 4 – PICTURE GALLERY – illustrates milestone achievements via facsimiles of figures as they were published in the original works.
Chapter 5 – BIOGRAPHIES INDEX – contains a collection of biographical sketches of eminent researchers in the fields of percussion, explosions, detonations and shock waves. Each biography is supplemented by a list of their most important publications relating to the fields addressed in this book, by secondary literature (such as memoirs, obituaries, Festschriften, etc.), and – as far as available – by a portrait picture.
Chapter 6 – SUPPLEMENTARY REFERENCES – comprises a catalogue of general references that provides the reader with additional biographical and bibliographical sources. It also contains numerous historical review articles and a list of some Inteet home pages provided by institutes
engaged in shock wave and detonation physics, as well as museums.
