Description

Book Synopsis
Includes discussion of smoothness, differentiability, and analyticity, the idea of local coordinates and coordinate transformation, and a detailed explanation of the Whitney imbedding theorem (both in weak and in strong form). This book describes the notion of the area of a figure on the plane and the volume of a solid body in space.

Table of Contents
The story of the birth of manifolds: The prelude to the birth of manifolds The birth of manifolds The story of area and volume from everyday notions to mathematical concepts: Transition from the notion of "size" to the concept of "area" Scissors-congruent polygons Scissors-congruent polyhedra.
