Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is concerned with the study of projective geometry from first principles. It develops its subject without the use of the theory of distance, giving a particularly detailed examination of the behavior of complex geometrical elements in spaces of up to three dimensions. Unlike Euclidean geometry, projective geometry is concerned not just with the measurement of lengths and angles, but with the connections between the elements of a figure. The author mostly avoids the use of analytical formulations, opting for a direct and visual construction of every idea. This allows the author to present a great deal of material in a quick and coherent manner, including the famous Desargues' Theorem and an in-depth consideration of harmonic elements. This book will provide an accessible introduction to an important but often opaque branch of mathematics. Those who appreciate this book will include not only those interested in geometry but those who seek a good foundation in the subject for other technical and scientific disciplines. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
