Carlson (mathematics, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology) introduces some basic ideas and problems concerning manifolds, especially one- and two- dimensional manifolds. A sampling of topics includes classification of compact surfaces, putting more structure on the surfaces, graphs and topology, and knot theory. It is assumed that the reader has a background in calculus. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
