During the 1990s, there has been several major developments in smooth ergodic theory, which have attracted substantial interest to the field from mathematicians as well as scientists using dynamics in their work. In spite of the impressive literature, it has been extremely difficult for a student - or even an established mathematician who is not an expert in the area - to acquire a working knowledge of smooth ergodic theory and to learn how to use its tools. Accordingly, the AMS Summer Research Institute on Smooth Ergodic Theory and Its Applications (Seattle, USA) had a strong educational component, including 10 mini-courses on various aspects of the topic that were presented by experts in the field.
