This book describes the construction and the properties of CW-complexes. These spaces are important because firstly they are the correct framework for homotopy theory, and secondly most spaces that arise in pure mathematics are of this type.
Inhaltsverzeichnis
1. The fundamental properties of CW-complexes; 2. Categories of CW-complexes; 3. Polyhedra and simplicial complexes; 4. Simplicial sets; 5. Spaces of the homotopy type of a CW-complex; Appendixes.
