Book Description

This book, first published in 2000, is devoted to developments in symbolic dynamics. The opening chapters introduce systems of both 'low' and 'high' complexity. The later chapters go on to deal with more specialised topics including ergodic theory, number theory, and one-dimensional dynamics.
