Elements Of Projective Geometry (1893) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163947661)

""Elements of Projective Geometry"" is a comprehensive book written by the Italian mathematician Luigi Cremona in 1893. The book is a detailed exploration of projective geometry, a branch of mathematics that deals with the properties of figures that remain unchanged under projection. The book is divided into three sections, each of which covers different aspects of projective geometry. The first section provides an introduction to the subject, including an explanation of the basic concepts and principles of projective geometry. The second section delves deeper into the subject, covering topics such as conic sections, duality, and the projective properties of circles and curves. The third and final section of the book focuses on the practical applications of projective geometry, including its use in perspective drawing, architecture, and engineering.Throughout the book, Cremona uses a clear and concise writing style, making the complex subject matter accessible to readers with a basic understanding of geometry. He also includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to help readers visualize the concepts and principles he is discussing.Overall, ""Elements of Projective Geometry"" is a seminal work in the field of mathematics, and remains an important reference for students and professionals in the field today. Its clear explanations and practical applications make it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
