Notes on Differential Geometry
by Noel J. Hicks
Publisher: Van Nostrand 1965
ISBN/ASIN: B0000CMMMM
Number of pages: 183
Description:
A great concise introduction to differential geometry. The ten chapters of Hicks' book contain most of the mathematics that has become the standard background for not only differential geometry, but also much of modern theoretical physics and cosmology. It thus makes a great reference book for anyone working in any of these fields.
