    Geometric Mechanics
    Part I: Dynamics and Symmetry
    by Darryl D Holm

    "Both books are very readable; the author has an easy, informal style ¡­ These two books, written by one of the masters in geometric mechanics, provide an accessible way into the subject for newcomers; they also give a unique perspective for those who are not so new."

    Topics in Number Theory
    by Minking Eie

    "This book is really quite unusual among works in analytic number theory since it provides a rather quick line of ascent to something not only pretty exotic and exciting but also absent from the usual repertoire of a practitioner of the art... Topics in Number Theory is a very interesting book indeed." Read the full review here.

    Concentration Compactness
    Functional-Analytic Grounds and Applications
    by Kyril Tintarev & Karl-Heinz Fieseler

    "The book is very well written, the arguments are complete and many illustrative examples are given. It can be helpful to all: beginners as well as advanced researchers who want to deepen their knowledge and develop correct intuition about the topic discussed."

    How Chinese Learn Mathematics
    Perspectives from Insiders
    edited by Fan Lianghuo, Wong Ngai-Ying, Cai Jinfa & Li Shiqi

    "A noteworthy feature of the book is that eleven of the chapter authors work in mainland China ... The edited collection is a significant contribution to the research literature and provides an important resource in the field."

    Basic Lie Theory
    by Hossein Abbaspour & Martin Moskowitz

    "I recommend this book for everybody starting to apply, learn or teach Lie theory, and also for researchers whose work is related to Lie theory. Anybody who has anything to do with Lie theory should place this book on his/her bookshelf."

    Variational Methods for Strongly Indefinite Problems
    by Yanheng Ding

    "This book contains a lot of material that can be useful for researchers in the field of critical point theory and its applications."

    Introduction to Non-Linear Algebra
    by V Dolotin & A Morozov

    "This book may be useful and inspiring for a quite broad audience. Reading the text needs motivation, experience and endurance, but it is worth one’s while."
