What textbook would you recommend for a bachelor in theoretical physics to study dynamical systems theory? I don't want to focus too much on chaos, just having a broad view on every interesting characteristics is enough. Physical meaning behinds equations should be explained.

Some related resources:

• Book recommendations on dynamical system on Mathematics SE, but obviously those are math-y.
• What are some of the best books on complex systems? While there is some overlaps, evolution of a simple oscillator can evoke interesting dynamics characteristics.
• Book recommendations for fluid dynamics self-study, but I'm not sure if studying only fluid dynamics is too narrow for me.
