Review

"An elegant geometry text...the whole very crisply printed and illustrated. Good exercises and helpful references." SciTech Book News

"...a thoughtful, carefully crafted textbook..." Science Books & Films

"The exposition is lucid; the body of the text and exercises are thoughtfully organized...The book should be brought to the attention of instructors wishing for a fresh outlook..." American Scientist

"In his introduction the author expresses the hope that he can instill good working attitudes that will help students go on to research in group theory, Lie groups, differential geometry and topology. The naturalness and sophistication of his development go far to fulfilling his aim...The book is produced to a very high standard. Both graphics and text are exceptionally clear." The Mathematical Gazette
