"The Second Edition presents the extension of differential geometry from curves and surfaces to manifolds in general. The book provides a broad introduction to the field of differentiable and Riemannian manifolds, tying together classical and modern formulations. The goal is to introduce manifolds in a both streamlined and mathematically rigorous way while keeping a view toward applications, particularly in physics"-- Provided by publisher
