Excellent book for a senior to graduate level geometry book,
By hawkins@aureate.com (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Experiencing Geometry: On Plane and Sphere (Paperback)
I used this book for a graduate level geometry class, and I found this book to be very enjoyable in terms of thinking that it requires and the way that the author presents the material. I like Henderson's approach to geometry, and I would recommend this book for math majors in college.
