Sinopsis
Excerpt from Geometry in Space: Containing Parts of Euclid's Eleventh and Twelfth Books; And Some Properties of Polyhedra and Solids of Revolution, With Exercises
Respecting the range and amount of matter that should be included in a treatise designed to give an introduction to the purely geometrical treatment of figures in space, the Editor has had diffi culty in coming to a decision; and he would put forward what is here given as, to a considerable extent, tentative. Thus, for example, it was originally intended that there should be a separate chapter on Surface Spherics; but, on reflection, it appeared dubious whether such a chapter would not be a 'game not worth the candle - adding to the expense of the book, and not really wanted.
The consideration of these figures is therefore barely touched on, in a few Definitions and Exercises.

Excerpt from Geometry in Space: Containing Parts of Euclid's Eleventh and Twelfth Books; And Some Properties of Polyhedra and Solids of Revolution, With Exercises
This little volume would have had its natural place as Part III of Euclid Revised, had not that Book extended to a quite sufficient size in its present form. But, mindful of the maxim - 'Great book, great evil' - the Editor thought that it would be better to make a separate volume of those parts of Euclid's Eleventh and Twelfth Books, which are, by common consent, desirable for a student; with such analogous additional matter as it might seem advisable to treat from a purely geometrical standpoint. There is too the additional reason for taking this course, that the number of those who extend the study of Geometry from two to three dimensions is few compared with the number who content themselves with what can be done in one plane. No doubt the conception of solid figures, beyond the very simplest, is difficult; and the graphic exhibition of them is perhaps more difficult still. Yet there can be no doubt also that the study of Pure Geometry in Space is of immense value, whether considered as a mental discipline, or with regard to its utility for other purposes.
Respecting the range and amount of matter that should be included in a treatise designed to give an introduction to the purely geometrical treatment of figures in space, the Editor has had difficulty in coming to a decision ; and he would put forward what is here given as, to a considerable extent, tentative.
