Homotopy Theories and Model Categories
by W. G. Dwyer, J. Spalinski
Publisher: University of Notre Dame 1995
Number of pages: 56
Description:
This paper is an introduction to the theory of model categories, which was developed by Quillen. We have tried to minimize the prerequisites needed for understanding this paper; it should be enough to have some familiarity with CW-complexes, with chain complexes, and with the basic terminology associated with categories.

Differential Forms and Cohomology: Course
by Peter Saveliev - Intelligent Perception
Differential forms provide a modern view of calculus. They also give you a start with algebraic topology in the sense that one can extract topological information about a manifold from its space of differential forms. It is called cohomology.

Algebraic and Geometric Surgery
by Andrew Ranicki - Oxford University Press
Surgery theory is the standard method for the classification of high-dimensional manifolds, where high means 5 or more. This book aims to be an entry point to surgery theory for a reader who already has some background in topology.
