From the reviews: This book is devoted to the study of sheaves by microlocal methods..(it) may serve as a reference source as well as a textbook on this new subject. Houzel's historical overview of the development of sheaf theory will identify important landmarks for students and will be a pleasure to read for specialists. Math. Reviews 92a (1992). The book is clearly and precisely written, and contains many interesting ideas: it describes a whole, largely new branch of mathematics.(...)The book can be strongly recommended to a younger mathematician enthusiastic to assimilate a new range of techniques allowing flexible application to a wide variety of problems. Bull. L.M.S. (1992)

Sheaf Theory is a highly "modern" and active field of mathematics at the intersection of algebraic topology, algebraic geometry and partial differential equations. In this Grundlehren volume the authors achieve a comprehensive and self-contained treatment of Sheaf Theory from the basis up, with emphasis on the microlocal point of view.
