Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: Wonderful This is simply the best math book ever made. You can just sit down and read it and understand it, plus Nonlinear Dynamics is really interesting stuff. (Technical + Concept) / Accessability > 1 Overall, best book on dynamic systems I've found. There is a lot of math but with a basic understanding of calculus, matrix algebra and with time it is understandable (at least in concept), even for a non-mathematician; it is clearly a textbook and does well at this. The concept development is great and walks the reader through developing, in building block fashion, an understanding of components of action in dynamic systems. Strogatz then ties these together toward the end (last 1/3 of book)when introducing the tour-de-force, chaotic systems. wonderful book As a physicist I rely on this book a great deal. It is written in an accessible informal style without sacrificing rigor. Many ideas are motivated and first developed using cute example systems, before the more general result is stated. Strogatz's deep familiarity with applications within physics, chemistry and biology is a real plus. Most of all, the book is fun to read and the author conveys a sense of enthusiasm for the subject. Superb book. This book provides an exceptional introduction to nonlinear dynamics. Math books are often trapped in equating rigor with formalisms and in compromising intuition to generalities. Strogatz book provides an exemplary guideline how both intuition and rigor may be served to transform a difficult topic into fun reading and highly applicable set of ideas. Here are the key elements of what you will find in this book. Great book for beginners Nonlinear dynamics and chaos is an excellent introductory book. It explains this complex looking subject in very simple and intuitive fashion. I recommend this book anyone who are interested in chaos/nonlinear dynamics. It even doubles as a fun book! | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
