This is a topology book for undergraduates,and in writing it I have had two aims in mind.Firstly,to make sure the student sees a variety of defferent techniques and applications involving point set,geometric,and algebraic topology,without celving too deeply into any particular area.Secondly,to develop the reader's geometrical insight;topology is after all a branch of geometry. 本书为全英文版。
