Several well-established geometric and topological methods are used in this work in an application to a beautiful physical phenomenon known as the geometric phase. This book examines the geometric phase, bringing together different physical phenomena under a unified mathematical scheme. The material is presented so that graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics and physics with an understanding of classical and quantum mechanics can handle the text.

1 Mathematical Background.- 2 Adiabatic Phases in Quantum Mechanics.- 3 Adiabatic Phases in Classical Mechanics.- 4 Geometric Approach to Classical Phases.- 5 Geometry of Quantum Evolution.- 6 Geometric Phases in Action.- A Classical Matrix Lie Groups and Algebras.- B Quaternions.
