The Three-Body Problem and the Equations of Dynamics: Poincare's Foundational Work on Dynamical Systems Theory - Astrophysics and Space Science Library Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2017 edition

In an effort to understand the stability of orbits in the solar system, Poincare applied a Hamiltonian formulation to the equations of planetary motion and studied these differential equations in the limited case of three bodies to arrive at properties of the equations' solutions, such as orbital resonances and horseshoe orbits.
