This is the award-winning monograph of the Sunyer i Balaguer
Prize 1999. The book presents recently discovered connections
between Artin s braid groups and left self-distributive systems,
which are sets equipped with a binary operation satisfying the
identity x(yz) = (xy)(xz). Although not a comprehensive course, the
exposition is self-contained, and many basic results are
established. In particular, the first chapters include a thorough
algebraic study of Artin s braid groups."
