Summary Note	The book's main concern is automorphisms of Riemann surfaces, giving a foundational treatment from the point of view of Galois coverings, and treating the problem of the largest automorphism group for a Riemann surface of a given genus. In addition, the extent to which fixed points of automorphisms are generalized Weierstrass points is considered. The extremely useful inequality of Castelnuovo- Severi is also treated. While the methods are elementary, much of the material does not appear in the current texts on Riemann surfaces, algebraic curves. The book is accessible to a reader who has had an introductory course on the theory of Riemann surfaces or algebraic curves.:
Contents note	Review of some basic concepts in the theory of Riemann surfaces -- Some exceptional points on Riemann surfaces -- The inequality of Castelnuovo-Severi -- Smooth and branched coverings of Riemann surfaces -- Automorphisms of Riemann surfaces, I -- When are fixed points of automorphisms exceptional in some other sense? -- Automorphisms of Riemann surfaces, II; N(p).
