Geometry

Summary: Handy paperback edition of High School Geometry..
Review: Too bad this book is out of print. Like the other math series by P. Abbott (Teach Yourself Algebra), this edition is a handy review of High School Geometry. The text goes only up to Euclidean geometry. Theorems are presented followed by their proofs. The writing and presentation is very pedagogic but the sheer beauty of the proofs makes reading this text fun. Now and then I get my copy and re-read the book just for the enjoyment and beauty of the proofs. It is so terribly sad that this text is out of print. Maybe Dover can produce a edition adhering to the same 4" x 6.5" paperback format. If you find a used copy somewhere get it.
