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.
My third book, 'Riemannian holonomy groups and
calibrated geometry',
303 pages, was published in the Oxford Graduate Texts in Mathematics
series
by Oxford University Press in March 2007. You can buy it on on the Web
from OUP in paperback
or hardback,
or from Amazon in paperback
or hardback.
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 Song, was published in Memoirs of the A.M.S. in May
2012.
You can buy it online here,
and it is available for free as arXiv:0810.5645.
My fifth book, 'Algebraic Geometry over C∞-rings', 143 pages, is due to appear in Memoirs of the A.M.S. in 2017, and it is available for free as arXiv:1001.0023.
My sixth book is, 'Some new homology and cohomology theories of manifolds and orbifolds', arXiv:1509.05672 (preliminary version, 232 pages). I will revise it while I am writing the 'Kuranishi spaces and Symplectic Geometry' project below, and then look for a publisher.I am currently working on books on 'D-manifolds and d-orbifolds:
a theory of derived differential
geometry', which you can read about on this page on
my
website, and on a series of books on 'Kuranishi spaces and Symplectic Geometry',
which you can read about on this page on
my
website. I do realize that some people might consider all
this excessive, but I can't seem to stop doing it.
