This important book presents theDouglasOCoRado solution to the Plateau problem, but the main emphasisis on the Bernstein problem and its new developments in variousdirections: the value distribution of the Gauss image of a minimalsurface in Euclidean 3-space, Simons'' work for minimal graphichypersurfaces, and author''s own contributions to Bernstein typetheorems for higher codimension."
