"The volume is based on the talks and lectures given by participants of the three-month program 'Topology in Condensed Matter,' which was held in the Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme, Dresden, Germany, 8 May - 31 July 22"--Foreword.

The book presents a class of results in molecular biology for which topological methods and ideas are important. These include: the large-scale conformation properties of DNA; computational methods (Monte Carlo) allowing the simulation of large-scale properties of DNA; the tangle model of DNA recombination and other applications of Knot theory; dynamics of supercoiled DNA and biocatalitic properties of DNA; the structure of proteins; and other very recent problems in molecular biology. The text also provides a short course of modern topology intended for the broad audience of biologists and physicists.
