Description
Among the many beautiful and nontrivial theorems in geometry found in Geometry Revisited are the theorems of Ceva, Menelaus, Pappus, Desargues, Pascal, and Brianchon.
A nice proof is given of Morley's remarkable theorem on angle trisectors.
The transformational point of view is emphasized: reflections, rotations, translations, similarities, inversions, and affine and projective transformations.
Many fascinating properties of circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, and conics are developed.
