Based on a graduate course taught at Utrecht University, this book provides a short introduction to the theory of Foliations and Lie Groupoids to students who have already taken a first course in differential geometry. Ieke Moerdijk and Janez Mrcun include detailed references to enable students to find the requisite background material in the research literature. The text features many exercises and worked examples.

Reviews & endorsements
"This book, though relatively short, is packed with interesting information. The student who would like a brief but substantial introduction to foliation theory will find it rewarding, but should be prepared for some hard work. There are many exercises, often challenging, and these illuminate the ideas and sometimes incorporate significant steps of proofs." Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
