Description

This unusual book, richly illustrated with 19 colour plates and about 250 line drawings, explores the relationship between classical tessellations and3-manifolds. In his original entertaining style with numerous exercises and problems, the author provides graduate students with a source of geomerical insight to low-dimensional topology, while researchers in this field will find here an account of a theory that is on the one hand known tothem but here is presented in a very different framework.
