² “This book deals with a very interesting mathematical technique that is rather powerful. An excellent reference to researchers, engineers, and interested individuals in helping them tackle nonlinear problems in an analytical fashion. A good subject index and an outstanding list of bibliography with 136 references cited. Very well written and is relatively easy to follow to the mathematically literate person. I highly recommend that it be acquired by interested individuals and libraries throughout.” -Applied Mathematics Review, Vol. 57, No. 5, September 2004 ( in details )

² “This monograph offers the opportunity to explore the details of the valuable new approach both in the theory and on many interesting examples. It will be useful to specialists working in applied nonlinear analysis.” -Zentralblatt MATH 1051
