Publisher's Synopsis
""The Mongean Method of Descriptive Geometry According to the Procedure of Gino Loria"" by William Henry Roever is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques of descriptive geometry. The book is based on the Mongean method, which was developed by the French mathematician Gaspard Monge in the 18th century. The Mongean method is a powerful tool for visualizing and analyzing three-dimensional objects and their relationships.The book begins with an introduction to the basic concepts of descriptive geometry, including points, lines, planes, and projections. It then goes on to cover more advanced topics such as conic sections, quadric surfaces, and ruled surfaces. The author provides numerous examples and exercises throughout the book to help readers understand the material and develop their skills.One of the unique features of this book is its focus on the procedure of Gino Loria, an Italian mathematician who developed a systematic approach to teaching descriptive geometry. The author follows Loria's procedure throughout the book, providing a clear and structured path for readers to follow.Overall, ""The Mongean Method of Descriptive Geometry According to the Procedure of Gino Loria"" is an essential resource for anyone studying or working in the fields of engineering, architecture, or design. It provides a thorough and practical introduction to the principles and techniques of descriptive geometry, and is suitable for both beginners and advanced learners.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
