The author considers compact connected and oriented \(n\)-dimensional Riemannian manifolds \((M,g)\) without boundary isometrically immersed into an \((n+1)\)-dimensional simply connected space-form. He gives estimates for the corresponding extrinsic radius of this immersion in terms of higher order mean curvatures. These estimates are extended to so-called pinching cases. The author is able to prove that under a suitable pinching condition \(M\) is diffeomorphic and almost isometric to a sphere.
