Birational Geometry, Rational Curves, and Arithmetic edited by Fedor Bogomolov, Brendan Hassett, Yuri Tschinkel.

This book features recent developments in a rapidly growing area at the interface of higher-dimensional birational geometry and arithmetic geometry.  It focuses on the geometry of spaces of rational curves, with an emphasis on applications to arithmetic questions.  Classically, arithmetic is the stu...
