Top review from the United States

Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 1998
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.
