Geometry, of all the branches of mathematics, is the one that is
most easily visualized by making something. However, it is all too
easy to reduce it to reams of formulas to memorize and proofs to
replicate. This book aims to take geometry back to its practical
roots with 3D printed models and puzzles as well as demonstrations
with household objects like flashlights and paper towel tubes. This
is not a traditional geometry textbook, but rather builds up
understanding of geometry concepts while also bringing in elements
of concepts normally learned much later. Some of the models are
counterintuitive, and figuring out how and why they work will both
entertain and give insights. Two final chapters suggesting
open-ended projects in astronomy and physics, and art and
architecture, allow for deeper understanding and integration of the
learning in the rest of the book.
