Finite Mathematics with Applications
After making my way through Dover's excellent Algebraic Topology and Combinatorial Topology (sadly out of print), I was recommended this on account of its 'clean, accessible' (1) layout, and its wise choice of 'not completely dedicating itself to the Jordan (curve) theorem'. (2)
I found it to be an even better approach to the subject than the Dover books. That said, they're all highly recommended. However, one new(er) to the concepts of algebraic and general topology will probably find this book to be more accessible, even if the algebraic treatment is too light to properly slake the gullet of a more seasoned topologist.
