Euclid by Shoo Rayner

This book brings geometry to life with Euclid explaining the principles of Geometry to his friends. Full of fun, explanation and even jokes, thei is the perfect introduction to a sometimes tricky subject.

Euclid lived 2300 years ago in Alexandria, in northern Egypt. His was a brilliant mind. He devised a method of learning Geometry starting from the simplest idea - an Axiom - something we can all agree is self-evident. Euclid built argument upon argument, creating a brillaintly simple system for learning Geometry which he wrote down in his book - Euclid's Elements - which was still in everyday use in schools well into the 20th century.

Shoo Rayner brings another Mega-mind to life with wit, clarity and sensitivity. For any age that wants to get to grips with geometry.
