Synopsis
Excerpt from Practical Descriptive Geometry
The first edition of this book, published in 1912, represented the author's views on the presentation of Descriptive Geometry, so as to arouse the student's interest in the subject without sacrificing rigorous training in the principles.
In three years the text has been used in many schools, and the present, second edition, aims to embody the suggestions of many leading teachers of the subject, who have, at the request of the author and publishers, expressed their views as to this development.
The main idea of the first edition, that of practicality, has been adhered to and amplified. The most important changes are The division into more chapters.
A more logical sequence for certain portions of the text. The notation of points and planes.
