Sinopsis

This book introduces a new mathematical topic known as 'circle packing', taking the reader from first definitions to late-breaking results. It can be enjoyed for visual appeal, the elegance of circle geometry, the clean theory, classical connections, or applications. There are intriguing, often very accessible, open problems throughout the book and seven Appendices on subtopics of independent interest.
