Milnor (mathematics, State U. of New York at Stony Brook) feels very fortunate to have started with the topology of manifolds in the 1950s; he was able to make very significant contributions to a fresh and dynamic field, and these papers prove it. Ranging from the later 1950s and into the later 1960s, these papers and include the "exotic spheres," including a procedure for killing homotopy groups of differentiable manifolds; expository lectures on topology, differentiable structures, and smooth manifolds with boundary based on "Variedades diferenciables con frontera", papers on relations with algebraic topology, and a series on cobiordism that is evidence of a staggering level of work done in a very short time. papers are in facsimile form and contain their original pagination. The author also provides a lively account of why he dedicated this volume to Georges De Rham, Hassler Whitney, and their belioved mountains.
