Differential Topology: First Steps by Andrew H. Wallace Keeping mathematical prerequisites to a minimum, this undergraduate-level text stimulates students' intuitive understanding of topology while avoiding the more difficult subtleties and technicalities. 1968 edition.
Undergraduate Topology by Robert H. Kasriel This introductory treatment is essentially self-contained and features explanations and proofs that relate to every practical aspect of point set topology. Hundreds of exercises appear throughout the text. 1971 edition.
An Introduction to the Theory of Linear Spaces by Georgi E. Shilov, Richard A. Silverman Introductory treatment offers a clear exposition of algebra, geometry, and analysis as parts of an integrated whole rather than separate subjects. Numerous examples illustrate many different fields, and problems include hints or answers. 1961 edition.
