Explains how to solve highly non-trivial nonlinear partial and ordinary differential equations using methods from contact and symplectic geometry. Combining the clarity and accessibility of an advanced textbook with the completeness of an encyclopedia, it contains applications to problems ranging from Lie's classification problem to analysis of laser beams.
