- Through the detailed calculation of a relatively small number of concrete examples, this book fashions an honest introduction to topology and geometry that reflects the recent and quite spectacular impact of gauge theory on these topics. Including many exercises, the book should be accessible to first year graduate students of either mathematics or physics and suitable for use in independent study.
