The Axioms Of Descriptive Geometry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163077740)

The Axioms of Descriptive Geometry is a book written by the renowned mathematician and philosopher, Alfred North Whitehead. The book is a comprehensive study of the principles and concepts of descriptive geometry, which is a branch of geometry concerned with the representation of three-dimensional objects in two dimensions. The book is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the basic concepts of descriptive geometry, such as points, lines, planes, and angles. It also introduces the concept of projections, which is a fundamental tool in descriptive geometry. The second part of the book focuses on the axioms of descriptive geometry, which are the underlying principles that govern the subject. Throughout the book, Whitehead provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the concepts and principles of descriptive geometry. He also discusses the historical development of the subject and its applications in various fields, such as engineering, architecture, and art. The Axioms of Descriptive Geometry is a valuable resource for students, teachers, and professionals in the fields of mathematics, engineering, architecture, and art. It provides a thorough understanding of the principles and concepts of descriptive geometry, which is essential for anyone working with three-dimensional objects in two dimensions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
