Introducing the reader to classical integrable systems and their
applications, this book synthesizes the different approaches to the
subject, providing a set of interconnected methods for solving
problems in mathematical physics. The authors introduce and explain
each method, and demonstrate how it can be applied to particular
examples. Rather than presenting an exhaustive list of the various
integrable systems, they focus on classical objects which have
well-known quantum counterparts, or are the semi-classical limits
of quantum objects. They thus enable readers to understand the
literature on quantum integrable systems.
