Synopsis

Bringing together over 140 examples, this volume opens with a concise introduction to general topology and its basic terminology. Each example is presented as a complete unit, with properties gathered and compared through more than 25 Venn diagrams and charts.

Alongside the examples, the authors discuss general methods of construction and change, offering insight into how counterexamples can be built. Problems and exercises are included and explicitly correlated with the examples, and a bibliography rounds out the text. Suitable for readers working with topology who want a structured collection of examples, diagrams and practice material.
