Description:

Stahl's Second Edition continues to provide students withthe elementary and constructive development of modern geometry that brings them closer to current geometric research. At the same time, repeated use is made of high school geometry, algebra, trigonometry, and calculus, thus reinforcingthe students' understanding of these disciplines as well as enhancing their perception of mathematics as a unified endeavor. This distinct approach makes these advanced geometry principles accessible to undergraduates and graduates alike.
