Reviews
From the reviews of the first edition:
"The book contains useful information on the topic, especially precise (and non-standard) asymptotic expansions in different regions collected with the help of the MAE-s into the complete characterization of the solutions to the nonlinear problems in consideration. The book is warmly recommended to specialists in ODE-s, PDE-s, researchers in reaction-diffusion theory, physicists, engineers and to students with basic knowledge on parabolic equations." (Jeno Hegedus, Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, Vol. 72, 2006)
