Theory of Orbits treats celestial mechanics as well as stellar
dynamics from the common point of view of orbit theory, making use
of concepts and techniques from modern geometric mechanics. It
starts with elementary Newtonian mechanics and ends with the
dynamics of chaotic motion. The two volumes are meant for students
in astronomy and physics alike. Prerequisite is a physicist's
knowledge of calculus and differential geometry.
