A Topological Introduction to Nonlinear Analysis
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-11793-5 (ISBN)
Robert F. Brown is a Professor of Mathematics at UCLA. His research area includes algebraic topology that is included within topological fixed point theory. Professor Brown's most recent research concerns the fixed point theory of fiber maps of fiberings with singularities.

From the book reviews:
"The basic goal of this book is to explain, prove and apply a famous result in bifurcation theory called the Krasnoselski-Rabinowitz theorem. ... a large portion of this book should be reasonably understandable even to upper-level undergraduates with a good real analysis course under their belts; certainly a beginning graduate student should find this book quite comprehensible, very informative, and enjoyable as well. The author deserves both congratulations and thanks for making such nontrivial mathematics so readily accessible." (Mark Hunacek, MAA Reviews, February, 2015)
