Samenvatting
* A geometric approach to problems in physics, many of which cannot be solved by any other methods
* Text is enriched with good examples and exercises at the end of every chapter
* Fine for a course or seminar directed at grad and adv. undergrad students interested in elliptic and hyperbolic differential equations, differential geometry, calculus of variations, quantum mechanics, and physics
