Rezensionen
"This book is ... of great interest for mathematical modelers--it nicely summarizes many important tools, with concrete examples, that could be adapted for other situations. ... I strongly recommend this book to advanced undergraduate engineers and mathematicians as well as specialists dealing with dynamical system modeling." (Arturo Ortiz-Tapia, Computing Reviews, July 26, 2022)
