Oscar Zariski's work in mathematics permanently altered the foundations of algebraic geometry.

This book is about three seemingly independent areas of mathematics: combinatorial group theory, the theory of Lie algebras and affine algebraic geometry.

Recent advances in both the theory and implementation of computational algebraic geometry have led to new, striking applications to a variety of fields of research.

There are three new appendices, one by Stefan Theisen on the role of Calabi- Yau manifolds in string theory and one by Otto Forster on the use of elliptic curves in computing theory and coding theory.
