Text similar to chapter 9 of Topology from James Munkres I'm self-studying chapter 9 of Topology from James Munkres.
I like to read different books about the same topic at the same time. Can someone recommend some text/book that is about the same subjects as found in chapter 9?
This chapter is about the fundamental group. It is from part 2 of the book, which is called algebraic topology. The sections are called homotopy of paths, the fundamental group, covering spaces, the fundamental group of the circle, retractions and fixed points, the fundamental theorem of algebra, the Borsuk-Ulam theorem, deformation retracts and homotopy type, the fundamental group of S* and fundamental groups of some surfaces.
Thanks in advance !

Here is a cocktail of sources that are quite helpful
1) Chapter III from Gamelin and Greene "Intro to Topology."
http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Topology-Second-Edition-Mathematics/dp/0486406806
2) An excellent chapter by John Lee on Simply Connected Spaces
http://www.math.washington.edu/~lee/Courses/441-2012/simplyconn.pdf?v2
3) An extremely nice set of videos by NJ Wildberger - several of which clearly present homotopy, the fundamental group, and covering spaces. There are plenty of examples and lots of pictures which add an intuitive understanding to the rigor:
