Reviews

From the reviews: As it is mentioned in the preface this is 'a graduate-level monographical textbook. It represents a comprehensive introduction into rigorous geometrical dynamics of complex systems of various natures'. ... This book has to be recommended for graduates in applied mathematics who are interested in basics of modern mathematical methods mostly based on geometry. (Iskander A. Taimanov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1092 (18), 2006)
