This book gives a playful and intuitive introduction to topology, favoring simple and crisp illustrations over long explanations and formal definitions. The material includes some of the classic results one would see in undergraduate courses on topology and graph theory, but presents these results in a way that readers without any knowledge of mathematics will be able to understand.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaths\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrees and Polygons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCell Divisions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuler's Formula\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting Five Points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting Three Points to Three Points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Mö\u003cbr\u003ebius Band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Torus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting Seven Points on a Torus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Klein Bottle and the Projective Plane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Genus-2 Surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMix and Match\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"American Mathematical Society","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52670804984088,"sku":"9781470479596","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/playing-with-shape-and-form-a-glimpse-of-topology-paperback-softback-9781470479596","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
