Description: There are two reasons why this may be a useful exercise. First, it may help to show K-theorists brought up in the \algebraic school how their subject is related to topology. And secondly, clarifying the relationship between K- theory and topology may help topologists to extract from the wide body of K-theoretic literature the things they need to know to solve geometric problems
