Description
Summary:A sweeping yet uniquely accessible introduction to a variety of central geometrical topics.Covering over two centuries of innovations in many of the central geometrical disciplines, Introduction to Topology and Geometry is the most comprehensive introductory-level presentation of modern geometry currently available.Unique in both style and scope, the book covers an unparalleled range of topics, yet strikes a welcome balance between academic rigor and accessibility. By including subject matter previously relegated to higher-level graduate courses in mathematics and making it both interesting and accessible, the author presents a complete and cohesive picture of the science for students just entering the field. Historical notes throughout provide readers with a feel for how mathematical disciplines and theorems come into being.
