"The book provides an introduction to the theory of dynamical systems with the aid of MATLAB, Simulink, and Symbolic Math Toolbox. It is written for final-year undergraduates, postgraduate students, and working scientists in both industry and academia. ...Driven by numerous examples from a broad range of disciplines and requiring only knowledge of ordinary differential equations, the text emphasizes applications and simulations using MATLAB.

The first chapter is an efficient tutorial introduction to MATLAB. New users will be able to become familiar with MATLAB within a few hours and those moderately familiar with the package and the experts will find this Chapter 0 a useful source of reference.

...The programs are kept as simple as possible....

The book contains about 330 illustrations, over 330 examples and exercises with solutions that play a key role in the presentation. Over 60 MATLAB program files and Simulink model files are listed throughout the text." —Revue Roumaine de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées
