Euclidean Geometry, the geometry which you encounter in a high school math class, Topology is
primarily concerned with transformations of connected geometric objects through bending,
stretching, and twisting. This introductory text is suitable for use in a course on the subject or for
self-study, featuring broad coverage and a readable exposition, with many examples and exercises.

spaces, homology and cohomology, higher homotopy groups, and homotopy theory generally. In the
case of one torus boundary, one can conclude that the number of slopes given by essential surfaces is
finite. However there are still some concepts that I struggled with while reading this book.
For those who have never taken a course or read a book on topology, I think Hatcher's book is a

Hatcher is taking advantage of that fact in part (a), which allows him to use some shortcuts of
terminology. If you are an intuitive learner with a rudimentary background in topology, you'll find
this book to be more accessible than a book which focuses on rigor. However, I can't understand any

essentials of topology. This is a surjective map from a compact space to a Hausdorff space, hence a

rigor, which also means you might want to use another more rigorous book together with this one.
The author emphasizes the geometric aspects of the subject, which helps students gain intuition.
However, ( IMO) you should have a working familiarity with Euclidean Geometry, College Algebra,
Logic or Discrete Math, and Set Theory before attempting this book. Why study topology? Topology
is like geometry on steroids. Hatcher's book is a good introduction to algebraic topology. It has
practical applications in the physical sciences, computer graphics, and statistics. At least if you want
to derive them from long exact sequences you already know instead of constructing them directly,
e.g. with the help of a short exact sequence on the level of chain complexes. What is important is that
the book manages to convey the essentials of topology. Maybe there is a way to show it without
constructing the actual maps. The good things of this book are the valuable exercises, examples,
however, you need to fill in some details for the proof, which is good for some reasons (for me too),
but if you don't want to learn algebraic topology in-depth, then it is not a friendly book, or you can

Hatcher also showed that irreducible, boundary-irreducible 3-manifolds with toral boundary have at
most 'half' of all possible boundary slopes resulting from essential surfaces. Browse other questions
