This book provides an introduction to discrete dynamical systems a frameworkof analysis that is commonly used in the fields of biology demographyecology economics engineering finance and physics. The book characterizesthe fundamental factors that govern the quantitative and qualitativetrajectories of a variety of deterministic discrete dynamical systemsproviding solution methods for systems that can be solved analytically andmethods of qualitative analysis for those systems that do not permit ornecessitate an explicit solution.
