Let \(\Gamma \subset \text{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{R})\) be a Fuchsian group. In the paper under review the author exhibits an algorithm to compute a fundamental domain for a Fuchsian group \(\Gamma \) with cofinite area. This algorithm provides a solution to the word problem for the computed presentation of \( \Gamma \).
