Recenzii
'This book provides a lively and lovely perspective on real projective spaces, combining art, history, groups and elegant proofs.' William M. Kantor
'This book is a celebration of the projective viewpoint of geometry. It gradually introduces the reader to the subject, and the arguments are presented in a way that highlights the power of projective thinking in geometry. The reader surprisingly discovers not only that Euclidean and related theorems can be realized as derivatives of projective results, but there are also unnoticed connections between results from ancient times. The treatise also contains a large number of exercises and is dotted with worked examples, which help the reader to appreciate and deeply understand the arguments they refer to. In my opinion this is a book that will definitely change the way we look at the Euclidean and projective analytic geometry.' Alessandro Siciliano, Università degli Studi della Basilicata
