Summary, etc. "Dimension three is an important test-bed for hypotheses in higher category theory and occupies something of a unique position in the categorical landscape. At the heart of matters is the coherence theorem, of which this book provides a definitive treatment, as well as covering related results. Along the way the author treats such material as the Gray tensor product and gives a construction of the fundamental 3-groupoid of a space. The book serves as a comprehensive introduction, covering essential material for any student of coherence and assuming only a basic understanding of higher category theory. It is also a reference point for many key concepts in the field and therefore a vital resource for researchers wishing to apply higher categories or coherence results in fields such as algebraic topology or theoretical computer science"--

Summary, etc. "In the study of higher categories, dimension three occupies an interesting position on the landscape of higher dimensional category theory. From the perspective of a "hands-on" approach to defining weak n-categories, tricategories represent the most complicated kind of higher category that the community at large seems comfortable working with.
