Geometry: A Metric Approach with Models, imparts a real feeling for
Euclidean and non-Euclidean (in particular, hyperbolic) geometry.
Intended as a rigorous first course, the book introduces and
develops the various axioms slowly, and then, in a departure from
other texts, continually illustrates the major definitions and
axioms with two or three models, enabling the reader to picture the
idea more clearly. The second edition has been expanded to include
a selection of expository exercises. Additionally, the authors have
designed software with computational problems to accompany the
text. This software may be obtained from George Parker.
