This invaluable book is a collection of lectures delivered at the Colloquium "Mathematical Results in Statistical Mechanics" held in Marseilles, France, on July 27-31, 1998, as a satellite colloquium of the Paris conference STATPHYS 20. It covers a large part of the contemporary results in statistical mechanics, from the point of view of mathematical physics, by leading experts in this field. It includes as the main topics, phase transitions, interfaces, disordered systems, Gibbsian and non-Gibbsian states, as well as recent rigorous treatments in quantum statistical mechanics.
