Preface
This book is an expanded version of a set of lecture notes for a minicourse I gave at IRMA Strasbourg in October 2012 as part of the Master Classes on Holomorphic Curves and Applications to Enumerative Geometry, Symplectic and Contact Topology. The focus of the minicourse was on certain specifically lowdimensional aspects of the theory of pseudoholomorphic curves, which lend a distinctive flavor to the study of symplectic a
