Abstract
This chapter discusses some results about homotopy groups and CW complexes. Throughout this book, one needs to assume a certain amount of algebraic topology. A CW complex is a topological space built up from a discrete set of points by successively attaching cells one dimension at a time. The name CW complex refers to the two properties satisfied by a CW complex: closure-finiteness and weak topology. With continuous maps as morphisms, the CW complexes form a category. It turns out that this is the most appropriate category in which to do homotopy theory. The chapter also looks at fiber bundles.
