Symplectic Geometry
by Ana Cannas da Silva - Princeton University
An overview of symplectic geometry – the geometry of symplectic manifolds. From a language of classical mechanics, symplectic geometry became a central branch of differential geometry and topology. This survey gives a partial flavor on this field.

Tight and Taut Submanifolds
by Thomas E. Cecil, Shiing-shen Chern - Cambridge University Press
Tight and taut submanifolds form an important class of manifolds with special curvature properties, one that has been studied intensively by differential geometers since the 1950's. This book contains six articles by leading experts in the field.

Manifolds of Differentiable Mappings
by Peter W. Michor - Birkhauser
This book is devoted to the theory of manifolds of differentiable mappings and contains result which can be proved without the help of a hard implicit function theorem of nuclear function spaces. All the necessary background is developed in detail.
