To make the textbook more suitable for learning and teaching purposes, especially to show the energy and variational-asymptotic method "in action", we decided to include the solutions to all exercises in this second edition (some of the exercises have been changed). Besides, we have found and corrected various small errors and misprints in the first edition. Finally, Section 8.4 is rewritten completely taking into account the new developments in amplitude and slope modulation of nonlinear dispersive waves. We would like to thank especially the editor of the series "Interaction of Mechanics and Mathematics", L. d dt
