註釋The Shape of Space brings topology to the general reader by showing how to visualize manifolds directly ... complements existing textbooks, which often deal only in abstractions, by offering a wealth of concrete examples ... includes the first elementary exposition of William P. Thurston's revolutionary discoveries ... applies topology to cosmology ... gives the first simple pictorial exposition of the Gauss-Bonnet formula ... builds intuition with more than 140 hands-on exercises, all with complete solutions ... and offers over 170 illustrations. An annotated bibliography lists useful references for further study on specific topics.
