Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Syllabus of Plane' Geometry (Corresponding to Euclid, Book I-Vi): Prepared as an Introduction to Absolute Geometry
Any physical object takes up room. The room occupied by an object, considered apart from the object, is called a solid.
That which separates a solid from any part of the room surrounding it, but itself no solid, is called a surface.
That which separates one part of a sur face from an adjacent part is called a line.
That which separates one part of a line from an adjacent part is called a point.
