Synopsis

The book provides a summary of the historical evolution of dimensional analysis, and frames the problem of dimensions, systems of units and similarity in a vision dominated by the conventions that formalise even the exact sciences.

The first four chapters address the definitions, with few dimensional analysis theorems and similarity criteria.
