Reviews

This 600-page book is the result of the authors' efforts to provide a detailed presentation of the present day differential geometry of hypersurfaces in real, complex, and quaternionic space forms. ... A summary of the frequently used notations and an index of notions are included. The book is an essential contribution to the progress of the theory of hypersurfaces. (Radu Miron, zbMATH 1331.53001, 2016)
