Incidence geometry is a central part of modern mathematicsthat
has an impressive tradition. The main topics of incidence geometry
are projective and affine geometry and, in more recent times, the
theory of buildings and polar spaces.
Embedded into the modern view of diagram geometry, projective
and affine geometry including the fundamental theorems, polar
geometry including the Theorem of Buekenhout-Shult and the
classification of quadratic sets are presented in this volume.
Incidence geometry is developed along the lines of the fascinating
work of Jacques Tits and Francis Buekenhout.
The book is a clear and comprehensible introduction into a
wonderful piece of mathematics. More than 200 figures make even
complicated proofs accessible to the reader."
