A good book on Geometry, but not exactly what I expected. This book contains advanced Geometry and expects knowledge of linear algebra and stuff like that.
It covers some of the things necessary for understanding, and the figures drawn are almost always on the same page and the problem they refer to.
All in all this was a very good book, but not quite what I expected.

Readers of CIRCLES need only be armed with paper, pencil, compass and straightedge to find pleasure in following the construction and theorems.
