From the reviews:
".....The book is a very good balance between theory and applications,
of analysis and synthesis, keeping always the focus on the comprehension
of the physics ruling our planetary system.
In summary, this represents both an excellent textbook for students and
a fundamental reference, and encyclopedic summary current knowledge, for
researchers in the Solar System field." (Alessandro Rossi, Celestial
Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2005)
