Discusses the geometry and arithmetic of elliptic curves. This book includes modern interpretations of some famous classical algebraic theorems such as Abel's theorem on the lemniscate and Hermite's solution of the fifth degree equation by means of theta functions.

An introduction to the work of Vaughan Jones and Victor Vassiliev on knot and link invariants and its modifications and generalizations, including a mathematical treatment of Jones-Witten invariants. It emphasizes the geometric aspects of the theory and discusses topics such as braids, homeomorphisms of surfaces and surgery of 3-manifolds.
