Beschreibung

This book explains and helps the reader to develop geometric intuition as it relates to differential forms. Over 250 figures aiding the reader to understand and visualize the concepts being discussed. The author put a great deal of effort to gradually build up to the basic ideas and concepts so that definitions, when made, do not appear out of nowhere and both the importance and role that theorems play is evident when, or shortly after, they are presented. A clear writing style along with providing easy to understand motivations for each topic is an additional asset of the book.Primarily aimed at second or third year undergraduate math and physics students the prerequisites of the volume are vector calculus and a bit of linear algebra only.
