The principles of his brilliant introduction to geometry are contained in his immortal \u003cem\u003eElements of Geometry\u003c\/em\u003e. It was this work that greatly extended the boundaries of mathematics and established the primary form of geometry until the past century. No other textbook has served as an introduction to a subject for so long a time. The present volume brings together what is known of this Greek genius, and traces the development of geometry before, during, and after his time.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\u003eThis edition of the book includes \u003cstrong\u003eadditional illustrations\u003c\/strong\u003e such as people mentioned in the text, a map, and photographs of historical writings and drawings of artifacts.
