Presents the newer field of chaos in nonlinear dynamics as a natural extension of classical mechanics as treated by differential equations. Employs Hamiltonian systems as the link between classical and nonlinear dynamics, emphasizing the concept of integrability. Also discusses nonintegrable dynamics, the fundamental KAM theorem, integrable partial differential equations, and soliton dynamics.Tabor, Michael is the author of 'Chaos and Integrability in Nonlinear Dynamics An Introduction' with ISBN 9780471827283 and ISBN 0471827282.
