The Reidemeister-Turaev torsion is defined for a 3-manifold equipped with a \(Spin^c\)-structure, or, equivalently, for a 3-manifold with a specified homology class of non-singular tangent vector fields. A Seifert fibred 3-manifold has a canonical \(Spin^c\)-structure which is represented by the vector field tangent to fibres of the Seifert fibration. In the paper under review the author describes an algorithm for computing the Reidemeister-Turaev torsion of Seifert fibred spaces.
