 Geometry Plus March 2, 2010
Frank S. Dzielski (Seven Hills, Ohio)
This is more that a book on Geometry. It covers the subject of Geometry in a logical fashion starting with the undefinables point, line, and plane. Next it discusses the extension of these concepts.
Also include is a discussion of deduction and induction. Concepts in logic are covered in an elementary manner.
This is a comprehesive treatment of Geometry from a purely mathematical perspective.
But it does not exclude a high school student from its content.
Proofs are incremental starting from first principals.
Well worth the price.
Why does the current description list Alice King as the author? February 9, 2010

My son is currently using this book in his (prep) school's highest level geometry class and my daughter is using the Larson geometry book in the highest level geometry course at her (different) high school. There is no comparison between the books. The Jurgensen book is far more rigorous. I am worried that our daughter is not being trained as she needs for a college science major.

This is a terrible geometry book! It is confusing, ill-organised, and doesn't teach the lessons, it just gives you problems to do without teaching you how to do them! If your school is making you get this geometry book i would go ahead and get another one along with it so you can actually learn the subject.

This is not a review of the content of the text book, but rather the purchasing of said book. Being able to buy a used text book for school is preferable to spending a large amount for a brand new book. The company I purchased it from indicated that the book was in excellent shape, and it was. I didn't ask for special shipping and it still arrived in a little more then a week, plenty of time before the class started. For any more text books, I will definitely start with Amazon first.
