From the reviews:
"This book by L. I. Manevitch and O. V. Gendelman is focused on a series of so-called 'tractable models'. . This book presents new original ideas in analysis of models from very different topics of nonlinear mechanics. The proposed approaches allow the authors to simplify complicated nonlinear problems and describe some important solutions. This book may be useful for specialists dealing with nonlinear mechanics, for theoretical physicists, and also for use in academic courses. The book is recommended for libraries." (Yuri V. Mikhlin, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2012 a)

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
