Non-Euclidean Geometry

This is a reissue of Professor Coxeter's classic text on non-Euclidean geometry. It begins with a historical introductory chapter, and then devotes three chapters to surveying real projective geometry, and three to elliptic geometry. After this the Euclidean and hyperbolic geometries are built up axiomatically as special cases of a more general 'descriptive geometry'. This is essential reading for anybody with an interest in geometry.Coxeter, Harold S. M. is the author of 'Non-Euclidean Geometry' with ISBN 9780802010681 and ISBN 0802010687.
