Focuses on the extraordinary impact Raoul Bott had on topology and interactions between mathematics, physics and technology. The contributions cover six decades of Bott's research, identify his enduring mathematical legacy, and the consequences for emerging fields. The book is broken into four sections and to make it accessible to a wide audience, each section starts with easier-to-read reminiscences before working its way into more involved papers.
