description: Researchers teachers and graduate students in algebra and topology--familiar with the very basic notions of category theory--will welcome this categorical introduction to some of the key areas of modern mathematics without being forced to study category theory. Rather each of the eight largely independent chapters analyzes a particular subject revealing the power and applicability of the categorical foundations in each case.
