Description:

Among the best available reference introductions to general topology, this volume encompasses two broad areas of topology: "continuous topology," represented by sections on convergence, compactness, metrization and complete metric spaces, uniform spaces, and function spaces; and "geometric topology," covered by 9 sections on connectivity properties, topological characterization theorems, and homotopy theory. Includes 340 exercises. 1970 edition. 27 figures.
