The author studies the topology of the space of smooth codimension one foliations on a closed 3-manifold. She regards this space as the space of integrable plane fields included in the space of all smooth plane fields. Most plane fields are not integrable, but every plane field can be deformed continuously to an integrable one. So, the above inclusion induces a surjective map between connected components. The author proves that this map is in fact a bijection.
