The book under review is the revised variant of the monograph [Invariant Sets of Dynamical Systems for Windows, Publ. ``Editorial URRS, 240 p. (1998)]. It is an attempt to provide both the visual presentation and theoretical analysis of the structures arising in nonlinear dynamical systems. The WInSet program developed by the authors is used to generate the images of many invariant structures related to a variety of phenomena in nonlinear dynamics. The book consists of two parts. Part I is concerned with the WInSet software for the visualization of invariant sets of classical nonlinear dynamical systems. Part II presents the mathematical investigation of invariant sets (IS) in low-dimensional dynamical systems and diffusion equations. It describes IS in Hamiltonian systems with one degree of freedom, with 3/2 degree (Duffing type equations, pendulum type equations, systems on the torus, Kepler equation) and with two degrees of freedom (Hénon-Heiles type systems), in area-preserving maps, in non-conservative systems, among them: characteristics of chaotic dynamics, self-oscillations (Van der Pol-Duffing type equations, pendulum type and Brusselator equations), resonances and synchronization, parametric resonances and strange attractors in three-dimensional systems (Lorenz, Roessler and Chua systems), and in diffusion equations.
