The classification of algebraic surfaces is an intricate and
fascinating branch of mathematics, developed over more than a
century and still an active area of research today. In this book,
Professor Beauville gives a lucid and concise account of the
subject, expressed simply in the language of modern topology and
sheaf theory, and accessible to any budding geometer. A chapter on
preliminary material ensures that this volume is self-contained
while the exercises succeed both in giving the flavor of the
classical subject, and in equipping the reader with the techniques
needed for research. The book is aimed at graduate students in
geometry and topology.
