• Principle of Reversibility of Modulation-Parametric Interactions; Controlling Equivalent Impedances of Radiophysical Systems; Nonlinear Resonance in Radiophysical Systems. Implementation of Parametric One-Ports. Peculiarities of the Utilization of Semiconductor Structures in Radiophysical Systems; Chaotic Oscillations in Radiophysical Systems; Elements of the Radiophysical Systems; Oscillating Circuit with Constant Parameters; General Analysis of the Parametric Phenomena in Linear Oscillating Systems with Parameters Changing in Time; Nonlinear Oscillating Systems with Parameters Changing in Time; Grouping of Coupled Oscillating Systems in Stable Electromechanical Formations; A Phenomenon of Excitation of Continuous Oscillations with a Discrete Set of Stable Amplitudes ("Quantized" Oscillation Excitation).

"This book ends with a 'Conclusion' section in which the author gives an excellent, concise summary of the results and issues examined in the volume and lists 'a number of new research problems that can be subject to further scientific and research work' ... I do recommend it for purchase by research libraries, where it will provide a useful reference for those already well versed in the basic elements of nonlinear dynamic systems and those who require a good summary of important recent results in these areas."SIAM Review
