These notes are the result of a course in dynamical systems given
at Orsay during the 1976-77 academic year. I had given a similar
course at the Gradu ate Center of the City University of New York
the previous year and came to France equipped with the class notes
of two of my students there, Carol Hurwitz and Michael Maller. My
goal was to present Smale's n-Stability Theorem as completely and
compactly as possible and in such a way that the students would
have easy access to the literature. I was not confident that I
could do all this in lectures in French, so I decided to distribute
lecture notes. I wrote these notes in English and Remi Langevin
translated them into French. His work involved much more than
translation. He consistently corrected for style, clarity, and
accuracy. Albert Fathi got involved in reading the manuscript. His
role quickly expanded to extensive rewriting and writing. Fathi
wrote (5. 1) and (5. 2) and rewrote Theorem 7. 8 when I was in
despair of ever getting it right with all the details. He kept me
honest at all points and played a large role in the final form of
the manuscript. He also did the main work in getting the manuscript
ready when I had left France and Langevin was unfortunately
unavailable. I ran out of steam by the time it came to Chapter 10.

THE ECHOES OF OUR PAST
Twelve thousand years ago, the human race barely escaped
annihilation when a piece of exploded star passed through our solar
system, unleashing an apocalypse. Great fires raged, mountains rose
and fell, a maelstrom of cosmic debris bombarded Earth, continents
broke apart, and oceans swept across the land. Millions of people,
animals, and plants perished almost overnight. Entire societies,
cultures, and belief systems were lost forever. The resulting
aftershock shaped humanity for thousands of years, and continues to
haunt us to this day. This is not fiction. This is history.
THE TRUTHS OF THE PRESENT
Using authoritative source material and an understanding of
mankind's aptitude for the transmission of factual knowledge
through myth and legend, Joseph Christy-Vitale dramatically unveils
a past unlike any proposed by either religion or science, viewing
the global catastrophe as living history, since the traumatic
effects of that terrible event affect us as a species even today.
THE PATHS OF THE FUTURE
Providing an insight into where our troubled view of the world
originated, "Watermark" tells the true story of how humanity's
brush with extinction still pervades our lives -- and offers the
first step to recovering what we lost so long ago: a healthy,
balanced view of the world.
