Synopsis

""The Axioms of Descriptive Geometry"" is a book written by Alfred North Whitehead, a renowned mathematician and philosopher. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the principles and axioms that underlie the field of descriptive geometry. Descriptive geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the representation of three-dimensional objects on a two-dimensional plane. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part covering the foundations of descriptive geometry and the second part delving deeper into the subject.In the first part, Whitehead lays out the basic principles of descriptive geometry, including the concept of projection, the use of planes and lines, and the importance of perspective. He also discusses the various types of projections, such as orthographic, perspective, and oblique. The second part of the book goes into greater detail on the subject, covering topics such as the intersection of planes, the concept of a cone, and the use of descriptive geometry in engineering and architecture.Overall, ""The Axioms of Descriptive Geometry"" is a seminal work in the field of mathematics and a must-read for anyone interested in the subject. It is written in a clear and concise manner, making it accessible to both students and professionals alike. The book provides a solid foundation for understanding the principles of descriptive geometry and their applications in various fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
