From the preface: "These notes on the theory of knots comprise an expanded version of a seminar held in the Departmento de Geometria y topologia at the Universidad de Zaragoza Zaragoza Spain during the winter of 1984. The notes begin with the most elementary concepts of diagram moves and linking numbers. Then they move quickly perhaps steeply using minimal technical apparatus to problems of knot cobordism and the Arf invariant Chapters 1 through 5. Chapter 6 is a miscellany. It contains ideas sidetrips and special topics. The last sections of this chapter contain an exposition of the author's geometric musings on the first generalized polynomial. a powerful invariant that generalizes the classical Alexander and Conway polynomials. Chapters 7 through 18 then develop more technical geometric knot theory -- with covering spaces and branched covering spaces." . First Edition. Soft Cover. Fine condition. xv 481pp. Princeton University Press Paperback

Life Senior Member 73; died 17 February. From 1979 until he retired in 1998 Lawrence "Larry" C. Scholz worked for the RCA Astro Space division now part of Lockheed Martin in East Windsor N.J. At Astro Space he worked on weather satellites Earth observation satellites communication satellites and spacecrafts that go to Mars. Before joining Astro Space Scholz was a group leader at Vitro Laboratories in West Orange N.J. There he led studies on how to improve the VELA satellite a nuclear-test detection system and a key element in the 1963 test ban treaty between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. The treaty prohibited all test detonations of nuclear weapons except underground. From 1960 to 1964 Scholz was a researcher at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago where he studied plasma physics. Scholz earned his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering in 1954 from the City College of New York and his doctoral degree in physics in 1964 from the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago." .
