This is a reissue of Professor Coxeter’s classic text on non-Euclidean geometry. It begins with a historical introductory chapter, and then devotes three chapters to surveying real projective geometry, and three to elliptic geometry. After this the Euclidean and hyperbolic geometries are built up axiomatically as special cases of a more general descriptive geometry. This text should be of use to anybody with an interest in geometry.
