โฆ Synopsis
Often a solution to a problem lies simply in finding its correct description. It is this underlying concept that consolidates the text of this unique and lively survey of geometric ideas. In Geometric Concepts for Geometric Design, its authors provide a way in which to visualize a variety of geometric problems and present the tools for their accurate representation. Disassociating fundamental ideas and methods from Read more...
