Dr Richard Earl is Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Mathematical Institute, Oxford University, and Senior Tutor in Mathematics at Worcester College, Oxford. He has taught topology at undergraduate and graduate level, as well as presenting the topic to secondary school students. He is the author of Towards Higher Mathematics: A Companion (CUP, 2017).
The book is written in an intuitive, informal and motivating style,
with emphasis on concepts, ideas, examples and historical comments,
and can be recommended as parallel reading for students of a basic
course in topology.
