Short description Written by an avid user of topological groups, this book provides a concrete introduction to metric and topological groups. Readers learn how to replace the sequences with nets to obtain a general proof, and the result is an increased emphasis on topological groups and less on general topology. The exercises have been designed to help hold the interest of advanced and beginning readers, and a variety of calculations, remarks, and necessary related facts have been placed within the exercises and are used throughout the text.
