Geometry

understanding shapes and sizes

Geometry

understanding shapes and sizes
Mike Goldsmith
Book - 2019

Investigates the history of mathematical discoveries and the men and women who figured them out, discussing their stories and what inspired them to think about and study the math and geometry they are known for today. Begins with the origins of geometry, meaning "Earth measurement," and navigates forward into time to fictional universes constructed entirely through mathematics where curved lines are straight and a coffee cup and donut are revealed to be exactly the same shape.
