The text presents the birational classification of holomorphic foliations of surfaces. It discusses at length the theory developed by L.G. Mendes, M. McQuillan and the author to study foliations of surfaces in the spirit of the classification of complex algebraic surfaces.

A total foliation is an example of a geometric structure on a manifold. A total foliation of an [script]n dimensional manifold consists of a [script]n codimension one foliations that are transverse at every point. If a manifold admits a total foliation where all [script]n foliat…
This book is an introduction to several active research topics in Foliation Theory and its connections with other areas. It contains expository lectures showing the diversity of ideas and methods arising and used in the study of foliations. The lectures by A. El Kacimi Alaoui of…
