Reviews

... Summarizing, the book presents a well-written survey of the modern theory of general PDE-s with most necessary proofs or hints, and with some explicit constructions. Therefore it will be useful for specialists in PDE-s as well as for students with basic knowledge in classical theory of PDE-s. The book is warmly recommended also to physicists, engineers and anyone interested in theory or/and applications of PDE-s. J. Hegedus, Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, Vol. 70, 2004
