About this title: For a senior undergraduate or first year graduate-level course in Introduction to Topology. Appropriate for a one-semester course on both general and algebraic topology or separate courses treating each topic separately. This text is designed to provide instructors with a convenient single text resource for bridging between general and algebraic topology courses. Two separate, distinct sections (one on general, point set topology, the other on algebraic topology) are each suitable for a one-semester course and are based around the same set of basic, core topics. Optional, independent topics ...

"After making my way through Dover's excellent duo of Algebraic Topology and Combinatorial Topology (old school), I was recommended this textbook on account of its 'clean, accessible' (1) layout, and its wise choice of 'not completely dedicating itself to the Jordan (curve) theorem'. (2)
I found it to be an even better approach to the subject than the Dover books. Then again, they're all highly recommended. However, one new(er) to the concepts of algebraic and general topology will probably find this book to be more accessible, even if the algebraic treatment is too light to properly satiate the palate of a more seasoned topologist.

"This book contains a great introduction to topology (more point-set than algebraic). I must admit, I have not read all of the first part of the book, but Munkres certainly makes it easier for a beginner to accept and understand the seemingly over-abstract definitions involved in point-set topology."
