Overview
This book applied the techniques of dynamical systems and bifurcation theories to the study of nonlinear oscillations. Taking the cue from Poincare, the authors stress the geometrical and topological properties of solutions of differential equations and iterated maps. Numerous exercises, some of which require nontrivial algebraic manipulations and computer work, convey the important analytical underpinnings of problems in dynamical systems and help the reader develop an intuitive feel for the properties involved.
