Review text

The author provides a very readable survey of the \(abc\)-conjecture from an elementary viewpoint, without reference to advanced connections. Consequences of the \(abc\)-conjecture (as well as the weak \(abc\)-conjecture) are discussed. Some generalizations are provided, such as the \(abc\) conjecture for algebraic number fields. The author concludes with some heuristic evidence for the validity of the conjecture. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0935.00033].
