Three-Dimensional Geometry and Topology, Volume 1 : (pms-35)

Flavors of Geometry is a volume of lectures on four geometrically-influenced fields of mathematics that have experienced great development in recent years. Growing out of a series of introductory lectures given at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in January 1995 and January 1996, the book presents chapters by masters in their respective fields on hyperbolic geometry, dynamics in several complex variables, convex geometry, and volume estimation. Each lecture begins with a discussion of elementary concepts, examines the highlights of the field, and concludes with a look at more advanced material. The style and presentation of the chapters are clear and accessible, and most of the lectures are richly illustrated. Bibiliographies and indexes are included to encourage further reading on the topics discussed.

Donald Ervin Knuth

This book describes Knuth's WEB system, a language designed to produce the best possible documentation for computer programs. Specifically, it describes a version of WEB adapted to the C Programming language by Silvio Levy, combining Knuth's other creation TEX language. This title: explains what CWEB is and shows how to use it; facilitates a style of programming that will maximize the ability to perceive the structure of complex software; and mechanically translates documented programs into a working system that matches the documentation.
