Two-Dimensional Geometries: A Problem-Solving Approach (Pure and Applied Undergraduate Texts)

About the Author C. Herbert Clemens, Ohio State University, Columbus, OH. Product Description This book on two-dimensional geometry uses a problem-solving approach to actively engage students in the learning process. The aim is to guide readers through the story of the subject, while giving them room to discover and partially construct the story themselves. The book bridges the study of plane geometry and the study of curves and surfaces of non-constant curvature in three-dimensional Euclidean space.
