"A lucid and masterly survey." -- Mathematics GazetteProfessor Pedoe is widely known as a fine teacher and a fine geometer. His abilities in both areas are clearly evident in this self-contained, well-written, and lucid introduction to the scope and methods of elementary geometry. It covers the geometry usually included in undergraduate courses in mathematics, except for the theory of convex sets. Based on a course given by the author for several years at the University of Minnesota, the main purpose of the book is to increase geometrical, and therefore mathematical, understanding and to help students enjoy geometry.Among the topics discussed: the use of vectors and their products in work on Desargues' and Pappus' theorem and the nine-point circle; circles and coaxal systems; the representation of circles by points in three dimensions; mappings of the Euclidean plane, similitudes, isometries, mappings of the inversive plane, and Moebius transformations; projective geometry of the plane, space, and n dimensions; the projective generation of conics and quadrics; Moebius tetrahedra; the tetrahedral complex; the twisted cubic curve; the cubic surface; oriented circles; and introduction to algebraic geometry.In addition, three appendices deal with Euclidean definitions, postulates, and propositions; the Grassmann-Pluecker coordinates of lines in S3, and the group of circular transformations. Among the outstanding features of this book are its many worked examples and over 500 exercises to test geometrical understanding.

Terrific content, soft cover.
Format: Paperback
It is way smaller than expected but it is amazing in content. The only think I do not like is that it has an extremely soft external cover, which worries me on the long run.

Useful and creative gift
Format: Paperback
I bought this for my friend since she has really been into sewing and dressing up in bolder outfit. When she saw the book, she told me she has been eyeing this and was really interested in the different color combinations. It is a small but unique book with so many different patterns and color combinations that can inspire people's lives with how they dress or decorate their living area.

Lightweight, Gentle & perfect for sensitive skin, instant hydration
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I received this CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion this morning and tried it for the first time tonight, and I’m already really impressed. The texture is lightweight and smooth. It applies easily and absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling. My skin felt instantly hydrated, soft, and comfortable. What I like most is how gentle it is. I’m currently using treatments that make my skin more sensitive, and this moisturizer didn’t cause any irritation at all. It actually helped calm my skin and made it feel more balanced. I also appreciate that it contains ingredients like niacinamide, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid, which are great for supporting the skin barrier and hydration. After just one use, my skin already looks more supple and healthy. It’s a great option for nighttime, especially if you don’t like heavy creams. So far, I’m very happy with it and will definitely keep using it.
