1	Geometry revisited more books like this by H. S. M. Coxeter, Samuel L. Greitzer add to wishlist Among the many beautiful and nontrivial theorems in geometry found in Geometry Revisited are the theorems of Ceva, Menelaus, Pappus, Desargues, Pascal, and Brianchon. A nice proof is given of Morley's remarkable theorem on angle trisectors. The transformational point of view is emphasized: reflections, rotations, translations, similarities, ... see all copies from $21.00! new only from $36.74!
2	Introduction to Geometry more books like this by H S M Coxeter add to wishlist This volume attempts to revitalize the sadly neglected topic of geometry. Apart from the general emphasis on the idea of transformation and on the desirability of spending some time in such unusual environments as affine space and absolute space, the chief novelties of the text are a simple treatment of the orthocenter, the use of dominoes to ... see all copies from $73.00! new only from $103.93! \| first editions \| SVS

4	Regular Polytopes more books like this by H S M Coxeter add to wishlist Foremost book available on polytopes, incorporating ancient Greek and most modern work. Discusses polygons, polyhedrons, and multi-dimensional polytopes. Definitions of symbols. Includes 8 tables plus many diagrams and examples. 1963 edition. see all copies from $6.93! new only from $9.15! \| signed copies \| first editions \| SVS
5	Projective Geometry more books like this by H S M Coxeter add to wishlist In Euclidean geometry, constructions are made with ruler and compass. Projective geometry is simpler: its constructions require only a ruler. In projective geometry one never measures anything, instead, one relates one set of points to another by a projectivity. The first two chapters of this book introduce the important concepts of the subject ... see all copies from $14.75! new only from $32.86! \| first editions \| SVS
6	Non-Euclidean Geometry 6ed more books like this by H S Coxeter add to wishlist This is a reissue of Professor Coxeter's classic text on non-Euclidean geometry. It begins with a historical introductory chapter, and then devotes three chapters to surveying real projective geometry, and three to elliptic geometry. After this the Euclidean and hyperbolic geometries are built up axiomatically as special cases of a more general ... see all copies from $34.99! new only from $51.69!
7	Real Projective Plane more books like this by Coxeter add to wishlist A comprehensive introduction to projective geometry which can be understood by anyone familiar with high-school geometry and algebra.

8	The Coxeter Legacy: Reflections and Projections more books like this by H S M Coxeter add to wishlist Donald Coxeter infused enthusiasm, even passion, for mathematics in people of any age, any background, any profession, any walk of life. Enchanted by Euclidean geometry, he was interested in the beauty, the description, and the exploration of the world around us. His involvement in art and with artists earned him admiration and friends in the ... see all copies from $71.18! new only from $71.18! \| first editions
