Brillant treatment of nonlinear differential and integral equations

This book contains a superb treatment of the classical theories of nonlinear equations including integral equations of the Volterra type. It was written in 1960, when the use of computers to solve differential equations and dynamical systems was in its infancy and the book is of course dated in this aspect. However, the book is a true treasure and is worth reading for its thorough and comprehensive treatment, including an introduction to the concept and usefulness of the phase space. It is bad that it is hard to get nowadays, but it is worth trying to get it used.

Nonlinear Differential Equations

Excellent coverage of the Painleve nonlinear differential equations.Excellent presentation of the method of Continuous Analytic Continuation and its use to numerically advance the solution of nonlinear equations in the complex domain around poles that can occur in the real domain, such as those that arise with the Painleve equations.
