Hardback. The study of the mapping class group Mod(S) is a classical topic that experiences a renaissance. It lies at the juncture of geometry, topology, and group theory. This book explains the main group-theoretical properties of Mod(S), from finite generation by Dehn twists and low-dimensional homology to the Dehn-Nielsen-Baer theorem.

Paperback. The theory of plane curves is much richer than knot theory, which may be considered the commutative version of the theory of plane curves. This study is based on singularity theory: the infinite-dimensional space of curves is subdivided by the discriminant hypersurfaces into parts consisting of generic curves of the same type.
