Geometry+Books



1. This is one of the best Geometry textbooks for Teachers and Students; unfortunately it is out of print and available online for a steep price: "As New" is $100+, "Used" is $100+... I just received this copy from online ("As New" & took a photograph to confirm that it is real : ) so that I can share some of its contents with other teachers, here at our wikispace... It makes geometry fun with tons of pictures and exercises and challenging analysis. This will be an ongoing resource during the school year, from my desk to you...

2.Shapes, Space, and Symmetry is a great book also and it is __inexpensive,__ as a Dover paperback (New=Less than $20). I had this book when I was a teenager (a B&W hardcover edition) and started making paper (cardstock) models of kool 3D Geometric "spheroids" and star shapes; so I just ordered the Dover paperback version to restart my hobby again with you and your students...

Note: For those of you with digital devices and tools (such as Geometer's Sketch Pad, or Google's Sketch-Up, etc. you can do all the tricks you want and share them as well... I'm a hand-craftsman at-heart and still use paper and cardboard to construct my toys and gifts... There must also be a lot of you, who now use 3D Printers to make fantastic objects... Share your projects here at our wikispace: it's a big world out there and new technologies keep whirling to do and make... So Create with us... Thanks...
