What is Hyperbolic Conservation Laws in Continuum Physics (Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften) about?

The aim of this work is to present a broad overview of the theory of hyperbolic c- servation laws, with emphasis on its genetic relation to classical continuum physics. It was originally published a decade ago, and a second, revised edition appeared in 2005. It is a testament to the vitality of the?eld that in order to keep up with - cent developments it has become necessary to prepare a substantially expanded and updated new edition. A new chapter has been added, recounting the exciting recent developmentsin classical open problems in compressible?uid?ow. Still another - dition is an account of the early history of the subject, which had an interesting, - multuous childhood. Furthermore, a substantial portion of the original text has been reorganized so as to streamline the exposition, update the information, and enrich the collection of examples. In particular, Chapter V has been completely revised. The bibliography has been updated and expanded as well, now comprising over - teenhundred titles. The background, scope, and plan of the book are outlined in the Introduction, following this preface. Geometric measure theory, functional analysis and dynamical systems provide the neces
