Description for Nonlinear Science
Hardback. This book gives a general, basic understanding of the mathematical structure "nonlinearity" that lies in the depths of complex systems. It makes the meaning of "nonlinear" (and, at the same time, of "linear") precise and concrete. Num Pages: 222 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKD; PBWR. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 235 x 155 x 18. Weight in Grams: 543.
Modern science has abstracted, as compensation for establishing rigorousness, the complexity of the real world, and has inclined toward oversimpli?ed ?ctitious n- ratives; as a result, a disjunction has emerged between the wisdom of science and reality. Re?ecting on this, we see the need for science to recover reality; can it reveal new avenues for thought and investigation of the complexity? The study of science is the pursuit of clarity and distinctness. Physics,after Galilei placed it in the realm of mathematics, has been trying to establish clearness by mathematical logic. While physics and mathematics, respectively, have different intellectual incentives, they ... Read more

About Zensho Yoshida
Professor Yoshida's contributions range from the mathematical physics to leading an experimental team of plasma physics. He has studied the self-organization of structures in plasmas using various theoretical methods such as variational principles, singular perturbation theory, operator theory, functional analysis, topological methods, etc., and, in particular, is well known for important contributions to the mathematical theory of the curl operator, ...

Reviews for Nonlinear Science
From the reviews: “The usefulness of the book is as a good auxiliary textbook for such courses as Mathematical Modeling, Dynamical Systems, Equations of Mathematical Physics.” (Vladimir Răsvan, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1195, 2010)
