Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This book presents the discovery of non-Euclidean geometry and the subsequent reformulation of the foundations of Euclidean geometry. The book provides a selection of topics suitable for the undergraduate student. A feature of this text is that some new results are developed in the exercises and then built upon in subsequent chapters. Many new exercises have been included in this edition. The book incorporates a discussion of the historical development of ideas, and the philisophical implications on the subject.
