2nd edition
From the reviews of the second edition: "Designed to be useful as both textbook and a reference, this book renders a real service to the mathematical community by putting together the tools and prerequisites needed to enter the territory of Thurston’s formidable theory of hyperbolic 3-mainfolds … . Every chapter is followed by historical notes, with attributions to the relevant literature, both of the originators of the idea present in the chapter and of modern presentation thereof. The bibliography contains 463 entries." (Victor V. Pambuccian, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1106 (8), 2007)
