Bundles, connections, metrics & curvature are the lingua franca of modern differential geometry & theoretical physics. Supplying graduate students in mathematics or theoretical physics with the fundamentals of these objects, & providing numerous examples, the book would suit a one-semester course on the subject of bundles & the associated geometry

Recensioner i media

"Taube's proofs are wonderful, complete and elegant... He is clear and concise, and indeed presents all the material beautifully and in a self contained manner, to the degree possible. ... He amplifies everything with generous allusions to other sources so that the reader is easily able to follow up on certain themes with considerable ease." --MAA Reviews
