“This book presents a monograph on foundational geometric principles of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian dynamics and their application in studying important physical systems. … Throughout the book numerous examples of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems are included … . It is very clearly written and it will be especially useful both for beginning researchers and for graduate students in applied mathematics, physics, or engineering.” ( M. Eugenia Rosado María, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2018)“The starting point of this impressive textbook is the important fact that there are remarkable situations where the variables that describe a dynamical system do not lie in a vector space (i.e., a simple at algebraic structure) but rather lie in a geometrical setting allowing the differential calculus, namely a differential manifold. … In conclusion, this book is extremely useful for each reader who wishes to develop a modern knowledge of analytical mechanics.” (Mircea Crâşmăreanu, zbMATH 1381.70005, 2018)“This well-written and expansive book is ambitious in its scope in that it aims at sound and thorough pedagogy as far as its subject matter is concerned, and it also aims at preparing the reader for computational work … . There are many good examples accompanying or even guiding the text, as well as extensive problem sets for the properly serious student. This book … prove very valuable to its readership, be they mathematicians, engineers, or physicists.” (Michael Berg, MAA Reviews, November, 2017)
