This is a book on Euclidean geometry that covers the standard
material in a completely new way, while also introducing a number
of new topics that would be suitable as a junior-senior level
undergraduate textbook. The author does not begin in the
traditional manner with abstract geometric axioms. Instead, he
assumes the real numbers, and begins his treatment by introducing
such modern concepts as a metric space, vector space notation, and
groups, and thus lays a rigorous basis for geometry while at the
same time giving the student tools that will be useful in other
courses.
