Essential Geometry with Analytic Geometry: A Self-Teaching Guide (Second Edition)
About this ebook
- Covers classical and analytic geometry.
- Teaches general principles that can be applied to a wide variety of problems.
- Avoids the mindless and excessive routine computations that characterize conventional textbooks.
- Treats geometry as a logically coherent discipline, not as a disjointed collection of techniques.
- Restores proofs to their proper place to remove doubt, convey insight, and encourage precise logical thinking.
- Omits digressions, excessive formalities, and repetitive exercises.
- Includes problems (with solutions) that extend your knowledge rather than merely reinforce it.
