Global Analysis of Minimal Surfaces

From the reviews of the second edition:

“The most complete and thorough record of the ongoing efforts to justify Lagrange’s optimism. … contain a wealth of new material in the form of newly written chapters and sections … . a compilation of results and proofs from a vast subject. Here were true scholars in the best sense of the word at work, creating their literary lifetime achievements. They wrote with love for detail, clarity and history, which makes them a pleasure to read. … will become instantaneous classics.” (Matthias Weber, The Mathematical Association of America, June, 2011)
