1 e This book deals with the modern theory of surfaces in Euclidean spaces, an active area of mathematics, which is often only treated piecemeal or through examples. The reader should be familiar with the fundamentals of differential geometry, as found, for example, in EMS 28. The material is accessible to students and researchers in mathematics.
