5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book., January 15, 2009
I have the older version from 89 I believe. I have seen the newer version and it did not seem to have changed very much.

This is a graduate level text for studies in nonlinear dynamics and chaos. It is meant for practising engineers and physicists really. It does not go into the mathematical perspective of nonlinear dynamics. It treats the theory from a flow rather than mapping based perspective. It also treats the subject matter with much more respect and depth than the Strogatz book of the same name. Strogatz's book is meant more for the undergraduate courses in NLD while this one helps physicists/engineers with traditional vibrations background bridge the gap to NLD and Chaos theory. All in all an excellent introduction to nonlinear dynamics.
