Review
' ... reading the book remains to be fun since it has nothing lost concerning the witty arguments of its author. Researchers in the field of the development and reception of nineteenth century textbooks on classical geometry in England will profit from this reprint.' Zentralblatt MATH
Book Description
Euclid and His Modern Rivals is a humorously constructed, yet deeply convincing testament to the Greek mathematician's teachings of elementary geometry. Published in 1879, it appeared in the form of an intentionally unscientific dramatic comedy – Charles Dodgson's attempt to entertain his audience beyond the confining realm of mathematics.
