Book Description
Euclid and His Modern Rivals is a humorously constructed, yet deeply convincing testament to the Greek mathematician's teachings of elementary geometry. Published in 1879, it appeared in the form of an intentionally unscientific dramatic comedy - Charles Dodgson's attempt to entertain his audience beyond the confining realm of mathematics.
