Excerpt from Plane Geometry
The addition of another text to the long list of existing geometry texts calls for an explanation of the motives under lying its preparation.
Briefly stated, this text aims to effect a compromise between the extreme demands of certain reformers and the equally un tenable position of overconservative writers. Our educational troubles cannot be cured by a complete break with the past, nor by ignoring the legitimate demands of our times. Accordingly, the authors have tried to endow the subject with life and reality, and at the same time to retain, as far as possible, that spirit of careful reasoning for which geometry has always been famous.
