This book was released on 1990 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on lectures presented at Pennsylvania State University in February 1987, this work begins with the notions of manifold and smooth structures and the Gauss-Bonnet theorem, and proceeds to the topology and geometry of foliated 3-manifolds. It also explains why four-dimensional space has special attributes.
