On Knots. (AM-115)
"On Knotsis chatty, and very pleasant for browsing. There are lots of wonderful illustrations and a wealth of detail from the author's bag of tricks, gathered over the years, relating to the combinatorics of knot diagrams and also to Seifert pairings, cobordism, signature invariants (several different ones), the Arf invariant, and the ubiquitous Alexander polynomial. There are many challenges to the reader to explore combinatorial patterns, which makes the book stimulating."--American Mathematical Society
