Publisher's Synopsis
The Foundations of Geometry by David Hilbert is a comprehensive and influential book on the principles of geometry. This large print edition contains all the original content of the book, but with larger text for easier reading. The book covers the basic concepts of geometry, including points, lines, planes, angles, and shapes, and explores the relationships between them. It also delves into more advanced topics such as non-Euclidean geometries and the axiomatic method. Hilbert's approach to geometry is highly rigorous and mathematical, making it an important work for students and scholars of mathematics and philosophy. The Foundations of Geometry is a classic text that has been widely studied and referenced since its publication in 1899.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
