The provided text is a table of contents and prefaces for the Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences, edited by Peter Fulde and others. The series covers a wide range of topics in solid-state physics, including multiple diffraction of X-rays, phonon scattering, superconductivity, two-dimensional systems, magnetic excitations, and more. Each volume is edited by a team of experts in the respective field. The specific volume highlighted is "Theory of Nonlinear Lattices" by Morikazu Toda, which is the second enlarged edition. The book discusses waves in lattices composed of particles interacting nonlinearly, focusing on lattices with exponential interaction. It covers topics such as periodic solutions, solitary waves, soliton solutions, and the integrability of the lattice. The book also includes numerical results and corrections from the first edition. The prefaces provide historical context, outlines the structure of the book, and highlights recent developments in the field. The author acknowledges the contributions of various colleagues and friends, as well as the support of Springer-Verlag. The content is rigorous and self-contained, with detailed explanations and examples to illustrate the concepts.The provided text is a table of contents and prefaces for the Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences, edited by Peter Fulde and others.
