In Fall
2007 I had the great privilege to be a TA for a MASS course taught by Anatole Katok under the
rather ambitious title "Surfaces: (almost)
everything you wanted to know about them." From that
experience was born a set of course notes, which after some extensive
polishing and reworking is being published in book form by the American
Mathematical Society. The initial
draft is still posted on the course website, with all its
errors, omissions, and countless rough spots which were smoothed out
for the book itself (along with all those which weren't).
Prof. Katok has a website with
more information about the book, including excerpts. Once it is
published, the book will be available through the AMS,
and of course through places like Amazon.
