Convex geometry is at once simple and amazingly rich. While the
classical results go back many decades, during that previous to
this book's publication in 1999, the integral geometry of convex
bodies had undergone a dramatic revitalization, brought about by
the introduction of methods, results and, most importantly, new
viewpoints, from probability theory, harmonic analysis and the
geometry of finite-dimensional normed spaces. This book is a
collection of research and expository articles on convex geometry
and probability, suitable for researchers and graduate students in
several branches of mathematics coming under the broad heading of
'Geometric Functional Analysis'. It continues the Israel GAFA
Seminar series, which is widely recognized as the most useful
research source in the area. The collection reflects the work done
at the program in Convex Geometry and Geometric Analysis that took
place at MSRI in 1996.
