About The Book
This reprint edition by Leonard M. Blumenthal offers an elegant and original exploration of Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry, focusing on postulational geometry of planes. The work is a thoughtful exposition suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, providing both a historical background and a summary of key concepts like set theory and propositional calculus.
The book dives into the coordination of affine and projective planes, emphasizing the unity of algebra and geometry. It also includes detailed treatments of postulates for Euclidean and non-Euclidean planes. This is an essential read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of geometry from a foundational perspective.
