This book is the result of years of work by the authors, looking to serve the research communities involved with the NLSE by collecting all known solutions in one resource. In addition, the book organizes the solutions by classifying and grouping them based on aspects and symmetries they possess. Although most of the solutions presented in this book have been derived elsewhere using various methods, the authors present a systematic derivation of many solutions and even include new derivations. They have also presented symmetries and reductions that connect different solutions through transformations and enable classifying new solutions into known classes.

For the user to verify that the presented solutions do satisfy the NLSE, this monumental work is accompanied by Mathematica notebooks containing all solutions. This work also features a large number of figures, and animations are included to help visualize solutions and their dynamics.
