"An Introduction to Combustion" remains unique in its niche as an introductory-level textbook that is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students and for practicing engineers. Material is presented in an easy-to-understand way and a wide range of subjects is covered in combustion and fuels. In the fourth edition material has been added related to the role of combustion in a sustainable energy future and modern open-source software has been integrated throughout.

Stephen R. Turns received degrees in mechanical engineering from The Pennsylvania State University (B.S., 1970), Wayne State University (M.S., 1974), and the University of Wisconsin at Madison (Ph.D., 1979). He was a research engineer at General Motors Research Laboratories from 1970 to 1975. He joined the Penn State faculty in 1979 and is currently Professor Emeritus of Mechanical Engineering. Dr. Turns taught a wide variety of courses in the thermal sciences and received several awards for teaching excellence at Penn State. In 2009, he received the American Society of Engineering Educations Ralph Coats Roe award. Dr. Turns had conducted research in several combustion-related areas. He is a member of The Combustion Institute, the American Institute of Aeronautics, the American Society of Engineering Education, and the Society of Automotive Engineers. Dr. Turns is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
