This book consists of the notes from the seminar Bonn/ Wuppertal 1983/ 84 on Arithmetic Geometry. It contains a proof for the Mordell conjecture and may be useful as an introduction to Arakelov's point of view in diophantine geometry. The third edition includes an appendix in which a detailed survey on the spectacular recent developments in arithmetic algebraic geometry is given. These beautiful new results have their roots in the material covered by this book.

Prof. Dr. Gisbert Wüstholz ist Professor für Mathematik an der ETH Zürich.
