Topologie algébrique, chapter I, § 4. Revêtements

A continuous, separated, open, proper mapping with finite fibres is not necessarily a covering. This is the case for the mapping x↦x2x\mapsto x^2 of R\mathbf{R} into [0;+∞[[0; +\infty [.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
