Especially, in this survey the comparison between completely regular spaces and closure spaces from the viewpoint of embedding, uniformities and proximities is cleared. The results are what are known already by the experts rather than new. Here topological spaces and closure spaces are defined in terms of closure operator, as follows:\\ For T-space;\\ \noindent {\bf 1.19 Proposition}[see [1], Proposition II.8.B] Let $R$ be a set and $A$ be a subset of $R$. We define a function $A\rightarrow \overline{A}$ from the family of a set $R$ to it satisfying the following conditions:\\ %Let $A$ and $B$ be a subset of a topological space $R$. We denoted the closure of $A$ by $%\overline{A}$. Closure satisfies the following conditions:\\ i)\hspace{2mm} $\overline{\emptyset}=\emptyset $,\\ ii)\hspace{2mm} $\overline{A}\supset A$,\\ iii)\hspace{2mm} $\overline{A\cup B}=\overline{A}\cup \overline{B}$,\\ iv)\hspace{2mm} $\overline{\overline{A}}=\overline{A}$.\\ We shall say that the function is a $closure$ $operator$ and $\overline{A}$ is called $closure$ $of$ $A$. A space defined this operator is called a $topological$ $space$ or $T$-$space$.\\ \noindent For closure space;\\ \noindent {\bf 4.1\ Definition}[[3],Definition 14.A.1] If $P$ is a set and $u$ is a single-valued relation on $exp P$ ranging in $exp P$, then we shall say that $u$ is a $closure$ $operation$ (or simply a $closure$) for $P$ provided that the following conditions (also called axioms) are satisfied:\\ (cl 1)\hspace{2mm} $u\emptyset =\emptyset $,\\ (cl 2)\hspace{2mm} $X\subset uX$ for each $X\subset P$,\\ (cl 3)\hspace{2mm} $u(X\cup Y)=uX\cup uY$ for each $X\subset P$ and $Y\subset P$. The main results are summarized in Theorems 1.33, 2.7, 3.16, 4.46 and 5.15 mainly. A topological space and closure space are characterized for embedding the follows:\\ For T-space;\\ \noindent {\bf 1.33\ Theorem}[[1],Theorem III.1] A topological space $R$ is completely regular space if and only if it is homeomorphic with a subspace of the product space of copies of the unit segment $[0,1]$.\\ \noindent For closure space;\\ \noindent {\bf 4.46\ Theorem}[[3],Theorem 17.C.18] Suppose that $P=(y_1,y_2,y_3)$ is a three-point set and $u$ is a closure for $P$ such that \begin{eqnarray*} u(y_1)=(y_1,y_2),\ \ u(y_2)=u(y_3)=P. \end{eqnarray*} (Obviously there exists exactly one such closure $u$.) Then every closure space $\langle Q,v\rangle $ is homeomorphic with a subspace of the product space $\langle P,u\rangle ^{expQ}$.\\ With respect to uniformity, there is a similarity between T$_{3\frac 12}$-spaces and closure spaces.\\ For T-space;\\ \noindent {\bf 2.7\ Theorem}[[1],Theorem VI.13] A topological space $R$ has a uniformity compatible with its topology if and only if $R$ is completely regular.\\ \noindent For closure space;\\ \noindent {\bf 5.15\ Theorem}[[3],Theorem 23.B.3] In order that a closure operation $u$ for a set $P$ be semi-uniformizable it is necessary and sufficient that $x\in u(y)$ imply $y\in u(x)$, i.e. if $x$ belongs to the closure of a one-point set $(y)$, then $y$ belongs to the closure of $(x)$.\\ With respect to proximity,\\ For T-space;\\ \noindent {\bf 3.16\ Theorem}[[1],Theorem VI.20] Let $R$ be a topological space. Then we can introduce a proximity compatible with the topology of $R$ if and only if $R$ is completely regular.\\ \noindent For closure space, by Theorem 6.21 and Proposition 6.18 every \v{C}ech proximity $\delta $ is induced by a semi-uniformity $\calu $, and that among all semi-uniformities inducing a given proximity $\delta $ there exists a unique \v{C}ech proximally coarse semi-uniformity $\calu $. Hence a closure space has a \v{C}ech proximity compatible with it if and only if it is semi-uniformizable and if and only if for each point $x,y$ in it, $x\in c(y)\rightarrow y\in c(x)$.\\ The undefined terms such as uniformity, proximity, \v{C}ech proximity are referred to the corresponding definitions in the article.\\ \noindent {\bf Reference}\\ \noindent [1] J.
