Summary
Inverse limits provide a powerful tool for constructing complicated spaces from simple ones. They also turn the study of a dynamical system consisting of a space and a self-map into a study of a (likely more complicated) space and a self-homeomorphism. In four chapters along with an appendix containing background material the authors develop the theory of inverse limits. The book begins with an introduction through inverse limits on [0,1] before moving to a general treatment of the subject…

Critics Review
From the reviews:
“Inverse limits are an important tool to study some aspects of the theory of continua. They provide a powerful tool for constructing interesting and complicated examples. This book is an excellent introduction to this topic and it is also useful for researchers since it includes the new developments in this area. The spaces considered here are always continua. … The book finishes with a very complete bibliography that includes 591 items.” (Alejandro Illanes, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1234, 2012)
