This is the third version of a book on differential manifolds. The first version appeared in 1962， and was written at the very beginning of a period of great expansion of the subject. At the time， I found no satisfactory book for the foundations of the subject， for multiple reasons. I expanded the book in 1971， and I expand it still further today. Specifically， I have added three chapters on Riemannian and pseudo Riemannian geometry， that is， covariant derivatives， curvature， and some applications up to the Hopf-Rinow and Hadamard-Cartan theorems， as well as some calculus of variations and applications to volume forms. I have rewritten the sections on sprays， and I have given more examples of the use of Stokes' theorem. I have also given many more references to the literature， all of this to broaden the perspective of the book， which I hope can be used among things for a general course leading into many directions. The present book still meets the old needs， but fulfills new ones.本書(shū)為英文版。
