My first book, Compact manifolds with special holonomy, 436 pages, was published in the Oxford Mathematical Monographs series by Oxford University Press in July 2000. You can buy it over the Web from OUP or Amazon.
It is a combination of a graduate textbook on Riemannian holonomy groups, and a research monograph on compact manifolds with the exceptional holonomy groups G2 and Spin(7). It is the first book on compact manifolds with exceptional holonomy, and contains much new research material and many new examples.
It is aimed at research mathematicians or graduate students interested in Differential Geometry or Algebraic Geometry, and at mathematical physicists working in String Theory.

My second book, 'Calabi-Yau
Manifolds and Related Geometries', 239 pages, joint with
Mark Gross and Daniel Huybrechts, was published in the
Universitext series by Springer in 2003. You can buy it on on the
Web from Springer
or Amazon.
My contribution to the book is the first 70 pages, which is an introduction to Riemannian holonomy groups and calibrated geometry.
I should confess that a little more than half this book is an updated version of parts of my first book 'Compact manifolds with special holonomy'. That is, I am cheerfully guilty of rampant self-plagiarism. Nonetheless, you should buy several copies of both books, for you and all your friends (or enemies?).
My fourth book, 'A theory of generalized
Donaldson-Thomas invariants', 199 pages, joint with Yinan

My fifth book, 'Algebraic Geometry over C∞-rings', 139

My sixth book, 'C∞-algebraic
geometry with corners', 216 pages, joint with Kelli
