Topology is a relatively young and very important branch of
mathematics. It studies properties of objects that are preserved by
deformations, twistings, and stretchings, but not tearing. This
book deals with the topology of curves and surfaces as well as with
the fundamental concepts of homotopy and homology, and does this in
a lively and well-motivated way. There is hardly an area of
mathematics that does not make use of topological results and
concepts. The importance of topological methods for different areas
of physics is also beyond doubt. They are used in field theory and
general relativity, in the physics of low temperatures, and in
modern quantum theory. The book is well suited not only as
preparation for students who plan to take a course in algebraic
topology but also for advanced undergraduates or beginning
graduates interested in finding out what topology is all about. The
book has more than 200 problems, many examples, and over 200
illustrations.
