About the Authors

This volume collects a series of survey articles on complex algebraic geometry, which in the early 1990s was undergoing a major change. Algebraic geometry has opened up to ideas and connections from other fields that have traditionally been far away. This book gives a good idea of the intellectual content of the change of direction and branching out witnessed by algebraic geometry in the past few years.
- New series for CUP (previous volumes published by Springer)
- Contributors were senior members of the research workshop
- Strong area of CUP's list

Review of the hardback: '… an overview of recent developments in the subject … While this is inevitably a book for the expert, the contributors have tried not to become too technical.' Mathematica
