The 1992/3 academic year at the Mathematical Sciences Research
Institute was devoted to complex algebraic geometry. This 1996
volume collects survey articles that arose from this event, which
took place at a time when algebraic geometry was undergoing a major
change. To put it succinctly, algebraic geometry has opened up to
ideas and connections from other fields that have traditionally
been far away. The editors of the volume, Herbert Clemens and Janos
Kollar, chaired the organizing committee. Activities were centered
around themes, one per month, under the guidance of experts in each
area. There were also four short workshops, which attracted many
participants and helped considerably in communicating the new
directions in algebraic geometry to a large audience. This book
gives a good idea of the intellectual content of the special year
and of the workshops.
