Covers the areas in the physics of the solar system, with emphasis on gravitational dynamics. This work's gist is the rational, in particular mathematical, understanding of the main processes at work. It focusses on the variety of objects in the planetary system and their long-term evolution.

Aims to be a balance between theory and applications, of analysis and synthesis, keeping the focus on the comprehension of the physics ruling our planetary system. This work is a textbook for students and a fundamental reference for researchers in the Solar System field.

While its basic content and the structure of the chapters are the same, important new topics have been added, including the extrasolar planetary systems, transneptunian objects. More emphasis has given to the solar system, whereas geophysical topics have been left at a less advanced level.
