Research mathematicians in algebraic topology will be interested in this new attempt to classify homotopy types of simply connected CW-complexes. This book provides a modern treatment of a long established set of questions in algebraic topology. The author is a leading figure in this important research area.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Because of its new results and techniques and its comprehensive coverage of the classification of homotopy types of simply-connected complexes with cells in only four consecutive dimensions and dual case, the book is necessary reading for graduate students and researchers in the field and for others who may wish to use results on homotopy classification in other areas such as classification of manifolds. * Zentrall fur Mathematik, vol. 857, 1997 *
