Originating from lecture notes of various courses given by the author over a decade, the book is intended to combine the pedagogical approach of a graduate textbook (without exercises) with the completeness and reliability of a research monograph…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll the material, with few exceptions, is presented from the peculiar point of view of special polyhedra and special spines of 3-manifolds. This choice contributes to keep the level of the exposition really elementary. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn conclusion, the reviewer subscribes to the quotation from the back cover: \"the book fills a gap in the existing literature and will become a standard reference for algorithmic 3-dimensional topology both for graduate students and researchers\". \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZentralblatt für Mathematik 2004\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this 2\u003csup\u003end\u003c\/sup\u003e edition, new results, new proofs, and commentaries for a better orientation of the reader have been added.
