The purpose of this book is to introduce algebraic topology using the novel approach of homotopy theory, an approach with clear applications in algebraic geometry as understood by Lawson and Voevodsky. This method allows the authors to cover the material more efficiently than the more common method using homological algebra. The basic concepts of homotopy theory, such as fibrat...(展开全部)

The authors present introductory material in algebraic topology from a novel point of view in using a homotopy-theoretic approach. This carefully written book can be read by any student who knows some topology, providing a useful method to quickly learn this novel homotopy-theoretic point of view of algebraic topology.

For a senior undergraduate or first year graduate-level course in Introduction to Topology. Appropriate for a one-semester course on both general and algebraic topology or separate courses treating each topic separately. This text is designed to provide instructors with a convenient single text resource for bridging between general and algebraic topology courses. Two separate,...(展开全部)

Gustave Choquet（1915-2006），著名法国数学家，法国科学院院士，曾被授予军官级（Officier）法国荣誉军团勋章（Legion d'honneur）。1946年获巴黎大学博士学位，1949年任巴黎大学教授，1965年任巴黎综合理工学院教 授。Choquet的研究领域涉及实变函数论、位势论、泛函分析、容量理论及积分表示等，并获得一系列重要结果，以创立Choquet理论和Choquet积分而闻名。著有《分析教程》（Cours d'analyse）和《分析讲义》（Lectures on Analysis）。
