During the past three decades, thedevelopment of nonlinear analysis, dynamicalsystems and their applications to scienceand engineering has stimulated renewedenthusiasm for the theory of OrdinaryDifferential Equations (ODE).This useful book, which is based on thelecture notes of a well-received graduatecourse, emphasizes both theory andapplications, taking numerous examplesfrom physics and biology to illustrate theapplication of ODE theory and techniques.Written in a straightforward and easilyaccessible style, this volume presentsdynamical systems in the spirit of nonlinearanalysis to readers at a graduate level andserves both as a textbook and as a valuableresource for researchers.This new edition contains correctionsand suggestions from the various readersand users. A new chapter on MonotoneDynamical Systems is added to take intoaccount the new developments in ordinarydifferential equations and dynamical systems.
