      This nice book is a revised version of the author's book [Topics in differential topology. Texts and Readings in Mathematics 34. New Delhi: Hindustan Book Agency (2005; Zbl 1076.57001)]. As explained in the Preface, the main difference between the present book and its predecessor is the omission of the chapter dedicated to Gromov's \(h\)-principle for solutions of partial differential relations. Also, Chapter 5 now contains an added section on integration of differential forms on manifolds and Stokes' theorem.
