From the reviews of the first edition: "This book exposes
the beautiful confluence of deep techniques and ideas from
mathematical physics and the topological study of the
differentiable structure of compact four-dimensional manifolds,
compact spaces locally modeled on the world in which we live and
operate... The book is filled with insightful remarks, proofs, and
contributions that have never before appeared in print. For anyone
attempting to understand the work of Donaldson and the applications
of gauge theories to four-dimensional topology, the book is a
must." #

student or working mathematician who wishes to learn the analytic
aspects of this subject to begin with Freed and Uhlenbeck's book."
