About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from Practical Plane and Solid Geometry for Advanced Students

The training in Practical Geometry suitable for the student of Art consists of working problems mainly in Plane Geometry and Perspective. The former because decora tive designs are largely based on geometrical figures; and the latter because an artist constantly deals with appearances. On the other hand, the student of Science finds in Practical Geometry a powerful engine of calculation, which may often with great advantage be employed in preference to analytical processes. The principal use to him of plane geometry is that it enables him to make graphical or semi-graphical computations. Descriptive geometry is of great importance since it is required -in problems which involve three dimensions in space; and also because it shows how to exhibit the actual forms and dimensions of solid objects. This book is written for Science students. The necessity of accurate draughtsmanship is insisted on throughout. We describe how the drawing instruments may be set and their efficiency maintained. And the numerical answers appended to many of the examples should help to prevent any relapse into slovenly and'in accurate work on the part of those students who are apt to become lax.

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
