    The book contains fourteen chapters, the first of which shows the scope and structure of the book. Chapter 2 on ``Differential geometry of surface and curve'' gives the necessary information about differential geometry of surfaces and curves, namely, all metrics and curvature parameters. Chapter 3 on ``Closet point projection procedure and corresponding curvilinear coordinate system'' creates a basis of the geometrically exact theory of contact interactions for certain geometric pairs such as surface-to-surface, curve-to-surface and curve-to-curve. In Chapter 4 on ``Geometry and kinematics of contact'', the authors study the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the closet point projection procedure depending on the geometry of contacting objects. The chapter also includes the linearization of kinematic parameters necessary for contacts between rigid surfaces and deformable solids. Chapter 5 on ``Weak formulation of contact conditions'' deals with the analogy between kinematic and variational values, to formulate the weak forms for all considered contact situations: surface-to-surface, point-to-curve, curve-to-curve, etc., in corresponding curvilinear coordinate systems. In addition, various formulations of the Nitsche approach are discussed. Chapter 6 on ``Contact constrains and constitutive equations for contact tractions'' presents general formulations of contact conditions for all geometrical cases such as surface-to-surface and curve-to-curve contact pairs, particular cases of which are studied in Chapter 4. A special attention is paid to the generalization of the classical Coulomb friction law for the surface-to-surface as well as for the curve-to-curve contact cases. Chapter 7 on ``Linearization of the weak forms -- tangent matrices in a covariant form'' gives the full Newton iterative method for linearization of the corresponding weak forms representing the equilibrium conditions on the contact boundaries, for all contact cases. Chapter 8 on ``Surface-to-surface contact -- various aspects for implementations within the finite element method'' is devoted to the finite implementation of various algorithms for surface-to-surface contact pair. The Newton iterative scheme is the main solution method for most algorithms. In Chapter 9 on ``Special case of implementation - reduction to 2D case'', the authors present the 2D implementation case as a sub-part of surface-to-surface contact. Chapter 10 on ``Implementation of contact algorithms with high-order FE'' shows the implementation of high-order finite elements including the possibility of contact interactions within a special strategy such as contact layer finite elements. Chapter 11 on ``Anisotropic adhesion-friction models -- some particular details of implementation and numerical examples'', focuses on finite element implementations of the coupled anisotropic adhesion-friction model. In Chapter 12 on ``Experimental validations of the coupled anisotropic adhesion-friction model'' verifies experimentally, for some structured surfaces, the coupled anisotropic adhesion-friction model studied in Chapter 11. In Chapter 13 on ``Various aspects of implementation of the curve-to-curve contact model'', the authors consider various finite element approximations for the structure, including solid-shell and beam type elements as well as the iso-geometric approach together with curve-to-curve type of contact. Chapter 14 on ``Frictional interaction of a spiral rope and a cylinder -- 3D-generalization of the Euler-Eytelwein formula considering pitch'', deals with the solution of the classical Euler-Eytelwein problem formulated as a 2D problem. This is generalized to the 3D case under the restriction that the rope is a spiral line and the sliding appears only in tangential direction.
