Fields Medal-winning mathematician John Milnor's classic treatment of
singular points of complex hypersurfaces
One of the greatest mathematicians of the twentieth century, John Milnor
has made fundamental discoveries in diverse areas of mathematics, from
topology and dynamical systems to algebraic K-theory. He is renowned
as a master of mathematical exposition and his many books have become
standard references in the field. Singular Points of Complex
Hypersurfaces provides an incisive and authoritative study of the local
behavior of a complex hypersurface V in Euclidean space at a
singularity Z0.
Princeton University Press is proud to have published the Annals of
Mathematics Studies since 1940. One of the oldest and most respected
series in science publishing, it has included many of the most important
and influential mathematical works of the twentieth century. The series
continues this tradition into the twenty-first century as Princeton
looks forward to publishing the major works of the new millennium.
