This book is meant to be an introductory text, albeit at an upper graduate level. The main prerequisite for reading this book is some familiarity with the basic theory of elliptic curves as described, for example, in the first volume. Numerous exercises have been included at the end of each chapter. A list of comments and citations for the exercises will be found at the end of the book.
