Critics Review
‘Each chapter concludes with a few exercises, and great care has been taken to use notation and terminology in a consistent way. That must have taken considerable effort and it greatly increases the value of the book because there are many examples in mirror symmetry of different writers using the same words to mean different, often subtly different, things.’ G. K. Sankaran, MathSciNet‘The book under review provides an introduction to homological mirror symmetry which is accessible to graduate students in mathematics. In particular, it includes a great amount of background material, and motivational sections. Among the reason it is so approachable is the style …’ Hulya Arguz, zbMATH
