A relentless tour-de-force that exposes the landscape of differential equations as part of differential geometry and topology. If you have a solid basis in either of these topics, this text is an eye-opener to applying them directly to solving and seeing the behavior of ODEs with little rote calculation.
29 expert takes on the state of mathematics at the turn of the millennium, many of them impenetrably technical but some readable by me.
