This book focuses on the lives and writings of some of history¿s most influential mathematicians, and the impact that their mystical beliefs had on their lives and on their mathematical work.

This solution manual accompanies the first part of the book An Illustrated Introduction toTopology and Homotopy by the same author. Except for a small number of exercises inthe first few sections, we provide solutions of the (228) odd-numbered problemsappearing in first part of the book (Topology). The primary targets of this manual are thestudents of topology. This set is not disjoint from the set of instructors of topologycourses, who may also find this manual useful as a source of examples, exam problems,etc.

This self-contained book explores the beauty of topology and homotopy theory in a direct and engaging manner while illustrating the power of the theory through many, often surprising, applications. It takes a visual and rigorous approach that incorporates both extensive illustrations and full proofs. Requiring only some familiarity with group theory, the text incorporates nearly 600 figures as well as various examples that show how the theory can be applied. It also includes roughly 750 exercises, many of which are relatively new.
