520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc The central theme of this book is the study of rational points on algebraic varieties of Fano and intermediate type - both in terms of when such points exist and, if they do, their quantitative density. The book presents the state of the art in computational arithmetic geometry for higher-dimensional algebraic varieties.
