Synopsis

Rethinking geometry for today’s classroom. This edition makes the ideas of non‑Euclidean geometry accessible and rigorous.

This book presents a modern view of geometry that moves beyond Euclid’s traditional postulates. It aims to place the new ideas within reach of students and teachers, with clear explanations and a focus on foundations, proportion, areas, and volumes.

  • Clear treatment of proportion and equivalence in a modern geometric framework
  • Accessible discussion of areas, volumes, and the role of the Archimedean postulate
  • Emphasis on rigorous reasoning without relying on outdated assumptions
  • Contextual notes about the development of non‑Euclidean geometry and its history
Ideal for readers of mathematics education and anyone curious about how geometry can be taught with contemporary foundations.
