This is the first textbook on C*-algebra theory with a view toward Noncommutative Geometry. Moreover, it fills a gap in the literature, providing a clear and accessible account of the geometric picture of K-theory and its relation to the C*-algebraic picture.
[...]
The text can be used as the basis for a graduate level or a capstone course with the goal being to bring a relative novice up to speed on the basic ideas while offering a glimpse at some of the more advanced topics of the subject. Coverage includes C*-algebra theory, K-theory, K-homology, Index theory and Connes’ Noncommuntative Riemannian geometry [...]. (Estratto dal sito dell'editore)
