The Solar System is a complex and fascinating dynamical system. This is the first textbook to describe comprehensively the dynamical features of the Solar System and to provide students with all the mathematical tools and physical models they need to understand how it works. It is a benchmark publication in the field of planetary dynamics and destined to become a classic. Clearly written and well illustrated, Solar System Dynamics shows how a basic knowledge of the two- and three-body problems and perturbation theory can be combined to understand features as diverse as the tidal heating of Jupiter's moon Io, the origin of the Kirkwood gaps in the asteroid belt, and the radial structure of Saturn's rings. Problems at the end of each chapter and a free Internet Mathematica® software package are provided. Solar System Dynamics provides an authoritative textbook for courses on planetary dynamics and celestial mechanics. It also equips students with the mathematical tools to tackle broader courses on dynamics, dynamical systems, applications of chaos theory and non-linear dynamics.

The Solar Queen is a trader ship crewed by Dane Thorson, Tau, and Captain Jellico. These are her voyages. 'The Plague Ship:' The Solar Queen and her crew have the trading rights to the wealthy planet Sargol, but to take advantage of them and see any return on their investment they must fight the Reptilian Gorp, negotiate with the cat-like Salariki, and find a cure for the sleeping sickness that has caused the Solar Queen to be called a plague ship and which has other ships looking to destroy them on sight. 'Voodoo Planet:' After a flyer crash, Dane Thorson, Tau, and Captain Jellico find themselves lost in a strange jungle. To make it back to the space port they will have to fight their way. Standing between them and civilization are alien animals and a powerful Voodoo priest who has plans for them.
