The study of the mapping class group Mod(S) is a classical topic that experiences a renaissance. It lies at the juncture of geometry, topology, and group theory. This book explains the main group-theoretical properties of Mod(S), from finite generation by Dehn twists and low-dimensional homology to the Dehn-Nielsen-Baer theorem.
