Critics Review
“A useful book for undergraduates, with the initial introduction to concepts being at the level of intuition and analogy, followed by mathematical rigour.”
A perfect introductory topology textbook, Understanding Topology requires only a knowledge of calculus and a general familiarity with set theory and logic. Equally approachable and rigorous, the textbook’s clear organization, worked examples, and concise writing style support a thorough understanding of basic topological principles, and might reasonably be expected to become a standard reference for teaching backgrounds of topology in the years to come.—Marek Golasinski (Olsztyn), Zentralblatt MathA useful book for undergraduates, with the initial introduction to concepts being at the level of intuition and analogy, followed by mathematical rigour.—John Bartlett CMath MIMA, Mathematics Today
