520			_aSummary: "In addition to knowledge on the physics of solitons, the authors aim to familiarise the reader with a new way of thinking in physics. Instead of linear approximations followed by a perturbative approach to nonlinearities, it is often more efficient to treat nonlinearities intrinsically, and to base the analysis on one of the soliton equations introduced in this book. This modelling process is stressed throughout Read more
