Rational Geometry: A Textbook For The Science Of Space, Based On Hilbert's Foundations (1904) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781164910657)

Rational Geometry: A Textbook For The Science Of Space, Based On Hilbert�������s Foundations (1904) is a mathematical textbook written by the renowned mathematician David Hilbert. The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of space and geometry, based on the principles of rationality and logical deduction. Hilbert's approach to geometry is based on the axiomatic method, which he developed to provide a rigorous foundation for mathematics. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the properties of points, lines, and planes, the concept of congruence, and the study of circles and conics. It also includes discussions on non-Euclidean geometries, projective geometry, and the geometry of higher dimensions. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field of mathematics. It is a classic work in the field of geometry and remains an important reference for anyone interested in the study of space and its properties.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
