It's like Munkres' Topology and Big Rudin in one volume. I am not sure why is it so cheap? Dover rocks. Review: Excellent complement for General Topology - I discovered this book as a Cambridge Maths undergraduate when it first came out in the early 1970s and it really helped complement the recommended texts and lecture notes. It is full of well explained examples, graded exercises and clear exposition and proofs. An especially interesting feature is the set of 42 tables of theorems and counterexamples in the appendix, doubtless slightly out of date now but still invaluable to those who, in the words of the author, absolutely ~must~ know whether every locally compact, completely regular, separable space is sigma-compact. (Although, to be totally honest, I have still never managed to find the answer to that particular combination, I don't consider this justifies reducing the overall 5-star rating). If I had not still got my 1972 copy, I would definitely buy this Dover reprint, even if it is slightly more expensive now than the £6.30 I paid for the hardback original. Be warned though, this is topology for analysis, as it says on the tin. The intuitions are almost exclusively analytically motivated and those in search of discussions of doughnut geometry or notions (co)homological and/or homotopic will need to search elsewhere.
