Systems of conservation laws arise naturally in physics and
chemistry. To understand them and their consequences (shock waves,
finite velocity wave propagation) properly in mathematical terms
requires, however, knowledge of a broad range of topics. This book
sets up the foundations of the modern theory of conservation laws,
describing the physical models and mathematical methods, leading to
the Glimm scheme. Building on this the author then takes the reader
to the current state of knowledge in the subject. The maximum
principle is considered from the viewpoint of numerical schemes and
also in terms of viscous approximation. Small waves are studied
using geometrical optics methods. Finally, the initial-boundary
problem is considered in depth. Throughout, the presentation is
reasonably self-contained, with large numbers of exercises and full
discussion of all the ideas. This will make it ideal as a text for
graduate courses in the area of partial differential equations.
