It has been known for some time that many of the familiar integrable systems of equations are symmetry reductions of self-duality equations on a metric or on a Yang-Mills connection (for example, the Korteweg-de Vries and nonlinear Schr"odinger equations are reductions of the self-dualYang-Mills equation). This book explores in detail the connections between self-duality and integrability, and also the application of twistor techniques to integrable systems. It has two central themes: first, that the symmetries of self-duality equations provide a natural classification scheme forintegrable systems; and second that twistor theory provides a uniform geometric framework for the study of B"acklund tranformations, the inverse scattering method, and other such general constructions of integrability theory, and that it elucidates the connections between them.
