Which graduate maths textbook are you?
I ought to be filling in my job application. Needless to say, I'm not: instead I've been reading the archives of my late (and much-missed) friend floor_sitter's blog. I keep finding entries I want to comment on, and then realising that there's no point. Damn, I miss her.

If I were a Springer-Verlag Graduate Text in Mathematics, I would be W.B.R. Lickorish's An Introduction to Knot Theory.
I am an introduction to mathematical Knot Theory; the theory of knots and links of simple closed curves in three-dimensional space. I consist of a selection of topics which graduate students have found to be a successful introduction to the field. Three distinct techniques are employed; Geometric Topology Manoeuvres, Combinatorics, and Algebraic Topology.
Which Springer GTM would you be? The Springer GTM Test
Epic fail :-(
