This book offers an introductory course in algebraic topology. Starting with general topology, it discusses differentiable manifolds, cohomology, products and duality, the fundamental group, homology theory, and homotopy theory.
From the reviews: "An interesting and original graduate text in topology and geometry.a good lecturer can use this text to create a fine course.A beginning graduate student can use this text to learn a great deal of mathematics."--MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS

Topology and Geometry
"An interesting and original graduate text in topology and geometry. The topics covered include . . . general topology, smooth manifolds, homology and homotopy groups, duality, cohomology and products . . . a good lecturer can use this text to create a fine course at the appropriate level . . . There are various innovative things, which are accessible but not traditionally covered. A beginning graduate student can use this text to learn a great deal of mathematics."-MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
