Progress in Mathematics is a series of books intended for professional mathematicians and scientists, encompassing all areas of pure mathematics. This distinguished series, which began in 1979, includes authored monographs and edited collections of papers on important research developments as well as expositions of particular subject areas.

We encourage preparation of manuscripts in some form of TEX for delivery in camera-ready copy which leads to rapid publication, or in electronic form for interfacing with laser printers or typesetters.

Proposals should be sent directly to the editors or to: Birkhauser Boston, 675 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA or to Birkhauser Verlag, 40-44 Viadukstrasse, CH-4051 Basel, Switzerland. 150 SHIOTA.
