	HANDBOOK OF DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS Volume 1A: Handbook of Dynamical Systems, Volume 1A Edited By B. Hasselblatt, Tufts University, Department of Mathematics, Medford, MA 0215-5597 USA A. Katok, The Pensylvania State University, Department of Mathematics, University Park, PA 16802-6401, USA Description Volumes 1A and 1B. These volumes give a comprehensive survey of dynamics written by specialists in the various subfields of dynamical systems. The presentation attains coherence through a major introductory survey by the editors that organizes the entire subject, and by ample cross-references between individual surveys. The volumes are a valuable resource for dynamicists seeking to acquaint themselves with other specialties in the field, and to mathematicians active in other branches of mathematics who wish to learn about contemporary ideas and results dynamics. Assuming only general mathematical knowledge the surveys lead the reader towards the current state of research in dynamics. Volume 1B will appear 2005. Contents Volume 1A. Principal structures (B.
