Topics covered include but are not limited to: The Projective Plane and Central Collineations The Geometry of Euclid's Elements Conic Sections in Early Modern Europe Applications of Conics in History With rare exception, the only prior knowledge required is a background in high school geometry. As a proof-based treatment, this monograph will be of interest to those who enjoy logical thinking, and could also be used in a geometry course that emphasizes projective geometry. 606 $aGeometry, Projective 606 $aMathematics 606 $aHistory 606 $aProjective Geometry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21050 606 $aHistory of Mathematical Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M23009 615 0$aGeometry, Projective. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aProjective Geometry. 615 24$aHistory of Mathematical Sciences. 676 $a516.5 700 $aBaltus$b Christopher$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0879371 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484217103321 996 $aCollineations and Conic Sections$91963628 997 $aUNINA
