"How useful it is," noted the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, "to have a single, short, well-written book on differential topology." This accessible volume introduces advanced undergraduates and graduate students the systematic study of the topological structure of smooth manifolds, from elements of theory to method of surgery. 1993 edition.
Reprint of the Academic Press, Boston, 1993 edition.
