About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from Solid Geometry

The stone-millis geometry - plane, solid, and plane and solid - published in 1910, was a pioneer in its field, being the first of the group of American textbooks on geometry which in recent years have attempted in various ways to make the teaching of geometry conform to modern thought in education. It marked a wide departure from the traditional Greek geometry after which textbooks for secondary schools had for generations been patterned. This text has met with remarkable success. The educational ideals which it embodied are now recognized as national, and are summarized in the report OF the national committee OF fifteen on the teaching of geometry.
