From the reviews:"The present monograph of lesan is a valuable contribution to the mathematical foundation of the theory of thermoelasticity of continuous bodies. … his goal is ‘to present a unified and systematic treatment of some results established in the theory of generalized models of thermoelastic bodies’, and in my opinion he reaches this aim in a very good manner … . The book can be a helpful tool not only for pure and applied mathematicians but also for physicists as well as for engineers … ." (M. Fuchs, ZAMM - Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Vol. 86 (11), 2006)"The book is complementary to the well-known monographs on the non-classical theories of thermoelasticity … . And it is written by one of the experts in the field, who has contributed to the development of the classical dynamic thermoelasticity and its extensions immensely. … On the whole this is a valuable monograph in the field of solid mechanics that should prove useful to a wide range of researchers for many years to come."
