description: The main purpose of this book is to inform the reader about the formal, or axiomatic, development of Euclidean geometry. It follows Euclid's classic text Elements very closely, with an excellent organization of the subject matter, and over 1,000 practice exercises provide the reader with hands-on experience in solving geometrical problems. Providing a historical perspective about the study of plane geometry, this book covers such topics as other geometries, the neutral geometry of the triangle, non-neutral Euclidean geometry, circles and regular polygons, projective geometry, symmetries, inversions, informal topology, graphs, surfaces, and knots and links.
