Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderful introduction
Review: I used this book for my first course in topology. It's easy to read and well organized. While it is an introduction, the author covers more than other books in it's price range (Baum or Mendelson, for example). The author starts with some set theory basics and then moves to metric spaces, which he uses as motivation for his definition of a topology (Baum and some others use neighborhood systems instead). He then discusses homeomorphism, seperation axioms (T0 through T4), compactness and other topics. The exercises provide a nice level of challenge; they require thought but aren't impossible. I'd recommend this book as a reference, or to anyone interested in higher mathematics. And since it's a Dover book, the prices is right!

Rating: 4 stars

Review: the book follows the straightforward style of proposition-theorem-proof-corollary and full of examples and helpful diagrams. but the notation is not fully compliant with modern topology.
