"""The present volume is the third one of a series which presents the fundamental elements of advanced mathematics that is at the basis of a number of contemporary scientific methods. More precisely, it deals with differential and integral calculus in their local and global components. The book is designed not only for mathematicians, but also for everyone who uses mathematics and needs to understand the control of nonlinear systems (in particular physicists and engineers). The ambitious goal is achieved also thanks to an excellent organization of the topics and the use of a very clear and understandable language. Interesting short historical notes introduce the different topics and help to frame the evolution of concept. The exposition is illustrated with some figures that help a lot in understanding the not easy topics. Very useful attachments are provided: a careful list of notation and term indeces, a reach bibliography, a list of cited authors with biographical notes."" --ZBMath"
