'The book of Brocker and Janich is the best introduction to elementary differential topology that I know. It is recommended wholeheartedly to every student for self-study and can also serve well as the foundation for an introductory course on differentiable manifolds.' E. Brieskorn, Jahresberichte der Deutsche Mathematische Vereinigung
