Complex Algebraic Surfaces - Arnaud (Universite de Paris XI) Beauville

A lucid and concise account of the classification of algebraic surfaces, but expressed simply in the language of modern topology and sheaf theory. The ample number of exercises succeed both in giving the flavour of the extraordinary wealth of examples in the classical subject, and in equipping the reader with most of the techniques needed for research.
