Reviews

The subject of the book is fascinating and written versions of the lecture series are nicley presented and preserve well the informal spirit of the lectures. This is a very useful book for graduate students and for mathematicians (or physicists) from other fields interested in the topic. EMS The lecturers cover an enormous amount of material, ranging from algeraic geometry and the theory of Riemann surfaces to loop groups, connections, Yang-Mills equations and twister theory. However despite this wide range, the book is surprisingly self-contained and readable. Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society
