Description
This English version of the path-breaking French book on this subject gives the definitive treatment of the revolutionary approach to
measure theory, geometry, and mathematical physics developed by Alain Connes. Profusely illustrated and invitingly written, this book
is ideal for anyone who wants to know what noncommutative geometry is, what it can do, or how it can be used in various areas of mathematics,
quantization, and elementary particles and fields.
Audience:
Graduate students and researchers in mathematics and mathematical physics. Particular appeal for analysts, geometers, and differential
geometers; those interested in quantization in physics and mathematics; particle physicists,functional analysts; and algebraists.
