Non‐Newtonian fluid dynamics, which was developed during the second half of the twentieth century, has become a part of the core research and teaching portfolio of chemical engineers. This overview reflects on classes of flows in which inherent nonlinearity causes non‐Newtonian fluids to exhibit qualitatively different behavior from Newtonian fluids. © 2004 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 50: 2335–2345, 2004
