From the reviews:“This book gives a detailed account of the connection between two areas of dynamical systems, the thermodynamic formalism and dimension theory in dynamical systems. … The book is probably best read by someone already familiar with the basics of ergodic theory, dynamical systems, and the Hausdorff dimension … . the book gives the reader a good grounding in both thermodynamical formalism and applying the thermodynamic formalism to prove results in the dimension theory of dynamical systems.” (Thomas Michael Jordan, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2014)
