Geometry of Algebraic Curves Volume II with a contribution by Joseph Daniel Harris / by Enrico Arbarello, Maurizio Cornalba, Phillip Griffiths.

The second volume of the Geometry of Algebraic Curves is devoted to the foundations of the theory of moduli of algebraic curves. Its authors are research mathematicians who have actively participated in the development of the Geometry of Algebraic Curves. The subject is an extremely fertile and acti...
