      The aim of the article is to provide an elementary introduction to polyhedral methods for understanding and solving systems of multivariate polynomial equations. The author does not assume a background in algebraic geometry. His treatment culminates at a self-contained proof of an extended version of Bernstein's Theorem relating volumes of polytopes with the number of connected components of the complex zero set of a system of polynomial equations. For low dimensions the author also gives a complexity bound, namely for computing mixed area and thereby the generic number of complex roots of two polynomial equations in the plane. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1029.00024].
