Geometry: Plane and Fancy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780387983066)

GEOMETRY: Plane and Fancy offers students a fascinating tour through parts of geometry they are unlikely to see in the rest of their studies while, at the same time, anchoring their excursions to the well known parallel postulate of Euclid. The author shows how alternatives to Euclid's fifth postulate leads to interesting and different patterns and symmetries.
