This monograph reviews advanced topics in the area of nonlinear dynamics. Starting with theory of integrable systems– including methods to find and verify integrability– the remainder of the book is devoted to non-integrable systems with an emphasis on dynamical chaos. Topics include structural stability, mechanisms of emergence of irreversible behaviour in deterministic systems as well as chaotisation occurring in dissipative systems.
