Many readers will be hooked by Cannon's aesthetics and proof exposition, where geometric intuition and topological arguments play leading roles...Cannon's books are worth every cent. I have in the past gifted Hilbert & Cohn-Voseen and Rademacher and Toeplitz to my students. Now I have Cannon's trio to add to my list of giftables.

The books contain an incredible range of ideas, both in terms of topic and in terms of sophistication. The author has great taste in topics and provides very valuable insights.
