Of course you've noticed it yourself in the 5 or 6 years since, but @ PeterMay came by himself to announce the appearance of the book: mathoverflow.net/a/84343/2383 . | |

| Aug 12, 2011 at 23:03 | comment | added | The Mathemagician | @Andy I was thinking of the original text,A CONCISE COURSE,which is relatively cheap-and thought the sequel would be packaged similarly.I should have known that'd be too much to hope for. More's the pity. | |
| Aug 12, 2011 at 3:43 | comment | added | Andy Putman | @Andrew L : I'd hardly call $65 for a 384 page hardcover book absurd. It's pretty much average or below average for scientific books. Trust me, neither of the authors will get rich on it... | |

| Mar 13, 2010 at 20:31 | comment | added | LSpice | Based on first-hand comments from Peter a few days ago, the text is now done, with precisely the table of contents you describe, and will appear soon. | |
| Mar 13, 2010 at 20:28 | comment | added | The Mathemagician | That's very encouraging,I may do that this summer. May is one of the Gods of the subject and anyone interested in topology owes it to themselves to read his papers and books. | |
