About The Book
This book provides a comprehensive, holistic view of geometry, blending axiomatic, algebraic, analytic, and differential approaches. It starts with an informal introduction to non-Euclidean geometries, eventually developing the theory in a rigorous manner.
The book expands on the Kleinian view of geometry as described by the Erlangen Programme, though it goes beyond this framework. It covers a range of important topics, including:
-
Results about triangles in Euclidean, hyperbolic, and spherical planes
-
Affine and projective classification of conics
-
Two-point homogeneity of the three planes
-
Distance-preserving (isometric) and length-preserving maps of these planes
Emphasizing geometric intuition, the book includes several figures to aid understanding. It also provides a variety of exercises ranging from computational problems to open-ended investigative questions, making it a suitable resource for students and enthusiasts seeking a deeper understanding of geometry.
