The theory of the stability of motion has gained increasing signifi
cance in the last decades as is apparent from the large number of
publi cations on the subject. A considerable part of this work is
concerned with practical problems, especially problems from the
area of controls and servo-mechanisms, and concrete problems from
engineering were the ones which first gave the decisin' impetus for
the expansion and modern development of stability theory. In
comparison with the many single publications, which are num bered
in the thousands, the number of books on stability theory, and
especially books not \\Titten in Russian, is extraordinarily small.
Books which giw the student a complete introduction into the topic
and which simultaneously familiarize him with the newer results of
the theory and their applications to practical questions are
completely lacking. I hope that the book which I hereby present
will to some extent do justice to this double task. I haw
endeavored to treat stability theory as a mathe matical discipline,
to characterize its methods, and to prove its theorems rigorollsly
and completely as mathematical theorems. Still I always strove to
make reference to applications, to illustrate the arguments with
examples, and to stress the interaction between theory and
practice. The mathematical preparation of the reader should consist
of about two to three years of university mathematics."
