I bought this book specifically to help revision for my finals. I certainly wasn't disappointed my purchase. This book covers everything in a clear, concise way with plenty of illustrations and examples. While it doesn't cover all of the topology that is typical1y met in an undergraduate course, it is certainly ideal for knots and surfaces.
