This revision of the 1983 second edition of”Elliptic Partial Differential Equations of Second Order” corresponds to the Russian edition, published in 1989, in which we essentially updated the
previous version to 1984. The additional text relates to the boundary H61der derivative estimates of Nikolai Krylov, which provided a fundamental component of the further development of the
classical theory of elliptic (and parabolic), fully nonlinear equations in higher dimensions. In our presentation we adapted a simplification of Krylov’’s approach due to Luis Caffarelli.
