This book is part of a two volume set which presents the analysis
of nonlinear phenomena as a long-standing challenge for research in
basic and applied science as well as engineering. It discusses
nonlinear differential and differential equations, bifurcation
theory for periodic orbits and global connections. The
integrability and reversibility of planar vector fields and
theoretical analysis of classic physical models are sketched. This
first volume concentrates on the mathematical theory and
computational techniques that are essential for the study of
nonlinear science, a second volume deals with real-world nonlinear
phenomena in condensed matter, biology and optics.

Using an interdisciplinary approach, Healing Memories analyzes the
ways that Puerto Rican women authors use their literary works to
challenge historical methodologies that have silenced the
historical experiences of Puerto Rican women in the United States.
Following Aurora Levins Morales's alternative historical
methodology she calls "curandera history," this work analyzes the
literary work of authors, including Aurora Levins Morales,
Nicholasa Mohr, Esmeralda Santiago, and Judith Ortiz Cofer, and the
ways they create medicinal histories that not only document the
experiences of migrant women but also heal the trauma of their
erasure from mainstream national history. Each analytical chapter
focuses on the various methods used by each author including using
the literary space as an archive, reclaiming memory, and
(re)writing cultural history, all through a feminist lens that
centers the voices and experiences of Puerto Rican women.
