Book DetailsCBMS Regional Conference Series in MathematicsVolume: 43; 1980; 251 ppMSC: Primary 57
This manuscript is a detailed presentation of the ten lectures given by the author at the NSF Regional Conference on Three-Manifold Topology, held October 1977, at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. The purpose of the conference was to present the current state of affairs in three-manifold topology and to integrate the classical results with the many recent advances and new directions.
