{"product_id":"surprising-geometric-solutions-posamentier-alfred-s-9789819831838","title":"Surprising Geometric Solutions: A Projective Geometry Approa","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book introduces the major ideas of projective geometry through clear explanations, visual intuition, and hands-on problem solving. Projective geometry opens a window into the deeper patterns of space, perspective, and form. While Euclidean geometry guides familiar constructions-drawing points, lines, and circles with a straightedge and compass-projective geometry goes further, encompassing hyperbolic and elliptic geometries and revealing the rules behind the way we see the world. Why do railway tracks appear to converge in the distance? Why does a tilted coin look like an ellipse? These are not illusions-they are manifestations of projective geometry at work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders will explore classical constructions and fundamental geometrical ideas through a fresh lens, building towards an exploration of key projective principles such as duality and invariance. Highlighting real-world applications in mathematics, physics, computer science, art and architecture, the book presents projective geometry not just as a mathematical discipline, but as a way of seeing. Whether you are a student, teacher, or curious mind, this book offers a new perspective on geometry-not just what we measure, but how we perceive and understand the world around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Posamentier Alfred S\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9819831830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789819831838\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Posamentier Alfred S","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49148598583551,"sku":"9789819831838","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/surprising-geometric-solutions-posamentier-alfred-s-9789819831838","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
