Synopsis

HARD TO FIND

Review

"... very successful in covering the theory of solitons ... remarkable for its lucid exposition of fairly complicated subjects and for not avoiding a number of computations that many other books omit ... an excellent introduction to the theory of solitons for nonspecialists, as well as a good resource book for researchers on the subject." J P Zubelli Mathematics Abstracts, 1991
