'This book is a very clear introduction to the theory of braids, addressed to beginners. The author has made a great effort to render the exposition in this book pleasant and interesting and to make the proofs complete. This book is probably the best first introduction to the theory of braids.' Athanase Papadopoulos, zbMATH '… this text is an excellent reference for graduate students and researchers. It is great to have a single, comprehensive resource addressing the braid isotopy problem using so many different approaches. The definitions are thoughtfully constructed and proofs are very thorough and detailed.' Katherine Vance, MAA Reviews
