Reviews
"The text is addressed to physicists and is not written in theorem-proof style, nor are the function spaces introduced equipped with explicit topologies and differentiable structures. However, all concepts are very carefully defined and necessary deviations from a rigorous treatment are clearly identified." (Mathematical Reviews 2003f)
"This monograph gives a comprehensive overview about Hamiltonian field theory with main application to the Einstein field equation. [...] Carefully prepared appendices and bibliography close this very readable book." (Zentralblatt MATH, 1002/02, 2003)
