    The author of the MSJ Memoir is a prominent specialist of the Geometric Group Theory. Let us present the list of topics which are considered: Group presentations (11 pages), Cayley graphs (9 pages), Quasi-isometries (18 pages), Fundamental groups (9 pages), Hyperbolic geometry (12 pages), Hyperbolic groups (29 pages). For the reviewer the most interesting are the pages about the properties of hyperbolic groups and the final notes. There are formulated extremely interesting comments, historical informations and open problems.
