About the Book

Hirsch, Devaney, and Smale's classic Differential Equations, Dynamical Systems,�and an Introduction to Chaos has been used by professors as the primary text for undergraduate and graduate level courses covering differential equations. It provides a theoretical approach to dynamical systems and chaos written for a diverse student population among the fields of mathematics, science, and engineering. Prominent experts provide everything students need to know about dynamical systems as students seek to develop sufficient mathematical skills to analyze the types of differential equations that arise in their area of study. The authors provide rigorous exercises and examples clearly and easily by slowly introducing linear systems of differential equations. Calculus is required as specialized advanced topics not usually found in elementary differential equations courses are included, such as exploring the world of discrete dynamical systems and describing chaotic systems. Classic text by�three of the world's most prominent mathematicians Continues the tradition of expository excellence Contains updated material and expanded applications for use in applied studies

About the Author :
Robert L. Devaney is Professor of Mathematics at Boston University. Robert was raised in Methuen, Massachusetts. He received his undergraduate degree from Holy Cross College and his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley. He has taught at Boston University since 1980. His main area of research is complex dynamical systems, and he has lectured extensively throughout the world on this topic. In 1996 he received the National Excellence in Teaching Award from the Mathematical Association of America. When he gets sick of arguing with his coauthors over which topics to include in the differential equations course, he either turns up the volume of his opera CDs, or heads for waters off New England for a long distance sail.

Review :
"This text contains exactly what a student need entering graduate school in Dynamical Systems needs to know. It by 3 mathematicians who are not only among the world s most prominent experts in dynamical systems, but who are among the world s best mathematical expositors. This book contains the benchmark models of chaos to which much of current research is compared."--Bruce Peckham, University of Minnesota "This is a great introduction to the next stage of differential equations after a first course. Devaney is a master of presentation, and makes everything seem easy."--William Basener, Rochester Institute of Technology "The geometric approach of hirsch/smale is a great introduction to dynamical systems. For a course on dynamical systems it's an excellent book."--James Crutchfield, University of California Davis
