Designed for a junior-senior level course for mathematics majors, including those who plan to teach in secondary school. The first chapter presents several finite geometries in an axiomatic framework, while Chapter 2 continues the synthetic approach in introducing both Euclids and ideas of non-Eucli
It is a very intiutive book in both areas. Also at the end of the book there is a good material for further study, author explains the research fields in Geometry/Topology and related books. If you are an undergraduate and want to get an overall idea about the gradute study in topology and geometry
The uniqueness of this text in combining geometric topology and differential geometry lies in its unifying thread: the notion of a surface. With numerous illustrations, exercises and examples, the student comes to understand the relationship between modern axiomatic approach and geometric intuition.
