Product details

"Gems of Geometry" by John Barnes is a captivating nonfiction book based on a series of lectures for adult learners. It demonstrates that geometry is much more than a dusty school subject; it is full of beauty and fascination. Barnes' infectious enthusiasm is harnessed to explain central concepts of geometry, starting with the Golden Ratio and moving through shapes and solids to the fourth dimension and Einstein's theories of relativity. This book is suitable both as a gift for young people and as a nostalgic return to the world of mathematics for older readers. The second edition includes additional materials and illustrations on topics such as colored cubes, chaos, and crystals, which enhance the understanding and enjoyment of geometry.
