Algebraic Geometry V Summary

Algebraic Geometry V: Fano Varieties by V.A. Iskovskikh

This EMS volume provides an exposition of the structure theory of Fano varieties, i.e. algebraic varieties with an ample anticanonical divisor. This book will be very useful as a reference and research guide for researchers and graduate students in algebraic geometry.
