Introduction to Combustion Textbook Recommendation

[Red_CCF]

Hello

I am interested in self-teaching basic combustion concepts. Is there a good textbook available that introduces combustion at an undergraduate level for someone with high school chemistry knowledge?

Thanks very much

I think this is currently the best book on combustion available: C.K. Law - Combustion Physics
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0521154219/?tag=pfamazon01-20

But it is a shared first place with the book from Kenneth Kuo:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0471046892/?tag=pfamazon01-20

A book with slightly less mathematics is the book from Warnatz, Maas and Dibble:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/3540259929/?tag=pfamazon01-20

A more theoretical book is the book of F.A. Williams - Combustion Theory
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0201407779/?tag=pfamazon01-20

Hi

Thanks for the recommendation. I am currently looking at Introduction to Combustion by Stephen R. Turns, if you know of it, how does it compare with the ones recommended above?

Thanks
