A nice introduction to the latest achievements of geometric model theory (Lie coordinatizable structures and simple theories). . . .The book should be on the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in stability theory. It is written in an elegant and enjoyable manner and can be recommended even to undergraduates who have already learnt the basic facts of model theory. --Mathematical Reviews<br> The subject of the book is at the very heart of modern model theory, and is close in spirit to what should be called foundations of mathematics. Geometric stability theory as presented in this book, concentrates on the basic structural properties of stable structures. The principal tools for characterizing stable structures are various dimensions (ranks) and special geometric configurations. The choice of the material for this book is, in my opinion, exactly optimal. The language and the proofs are very clear. I would recommend the book for postgraduate students specializing in model theory and for all those who would like to deepen their expertise in modern model theory and its application. -Boris Zil'ber, The Journal of Sumbolic Logic, Vol 63, No. 3, Sept 1998<br>
