This book provides a detailed exposition of William Thurston's work on surface homeomorphisms, available here for the first time in English. Based on material of Thurston presented at a seminar in Orsay from 1976 to 1977, it covers topics such as the space of measured foliations on a surface, the Thurston compactification of Teichmuller space, the Nielsen-Thurston classification of surface homeomorphisms, and dynamical properties of pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms. Thurston never published the complete proofs, so this text is the only resource for many aspects of the theory. Thurston was awarded the prestigious Fields Medal in 1982 as well as many other prizes and honors, and is widely regarded to be one of the major mathematical figures of our time. Today, his important and influential work on surface homeomorphisms is enjoying continued interest in areas ranging from the Poincare conjecture to topological dynamics and low-dimensional topology. Conveying the extraordinary richness of Thurston's mathematical insight, this elegant and faithful translation from the original French will be an invaluable resource for the next generation of researchers and students.

As one of Sonic Youth's founder members Thurston Moore has been acknowledged as a crucial forefather of the alternative rock scene of the past 30 years. Moore has also created a substantial catalogue of additional music with over 130 recordings spanning three decades. Moore's works have been sorely neglected due to their sheer scale, depth and diversity. This is the first-ever survey of this work, compiled with the full cooperation of Moore himself. The oral history testimonies of his collaborators on each recording provides brand-new insight into this crucial artist's lifelong dedication to musical performance and exploration.
