This paper deals with the linear and nonlinear analysis of the waves and solitons in weakly dispersive media as described by the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation. After the derivation of the formulae for the nonlinear wave, one obtains the expression and the numerical values of the growth rate of perturbations to nonlinear wave and soliton solution of the K-P. Then one performs a small-amplitude expansion including nonlinear terms in the perturbation and corresponding to the dominant instability. A pulse in time appears after a removal of the secular terms; and after a long duration, this pulse disappears and the initial wave structure is recreated. The paper comprises a main part and two appendices. For Part I, cf. ibid. 455, No. 1992, 4363-4381 (1999; Zbl 0951.35119).
