Topological library. Part 2, Characteristic classes and smooth structures on manifolds /
This is the second of a three-volume set collecting the original and now-classic works in topology written during the 1950s-1960s. The original methods and constructions from these works are properly documented for the first time in this book. No existing book covers the beautiful ensemble of method...
