Models of the regular and semi-regular polyhedral solids have fascinated people for centuries. The Greeks knew the simplest of them. Since then the range of figures has grown; 75 are known today and are called, more generally, 'uniform' polyhedra. The author describes simply and…

Für die Architektur und ihre Darstellung bildet die Geometrie eine wichtige Voraussetzung innerhalb des Entwurfs- und Kommunikationsprozesses. Dieses Buch führt in die geometrischen Grundlagen der Architekturdarstellung in didaktisch erprobter Weise ein und wendet sich insbesond…
This textbook presents an introduction to the differential geometry of curves and surfaces. This second, revised edition has been expanded to include solutions and applications in cartography. Topics include Euclidean geometry, curve theory, surface theory, curvature concepts, m…
"This well-illustrated book is the first comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the mathematics of Buckminster Fuller's invention of the geodesic dome fifty years ago, which paved the way for a flood of practical applications in construction and other areas. Geodesic appli…

"Polyhedra have cropped up in many different guises throughout recorded history. Ancient manuscripts from Egypt and China relate ideas concerning the calculation of the volumes of polyhedra, while the Greek tradition of geometry gave us the construction of the regular polyhedra …
"This book illustrates connections between various courses taken by undergraduate mathematics majors. The chapters are essentially independent, and the instructor can choose the topics that will form the course and thus tailor the syllabus to suit the backgrounds and abilities o…
