Stiefel manifolds are an interesting family of spaces much studied
by algebraic topologists. These notes, which originated in a course
given at Harvard University, describe the state of knowledge of the
subject, as well as the outstanding problems. The emphasis
throughout is on applications (within the subject) rather than on
theory. However, such theory as is required is summarized and
references to the literature are given, thus making the book
accessible to non-specialists and particularly graduate students.
Many examples are given and further problems suggested.
