Description
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
