Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores questions in geometry from an entertaining point of view. The author presents a variety of recreational problems, including those concerning geometric paradoxes, dissections, and tessellations. The book begins with a chapter on geometric fallacies, challenging readers to identify and understand errors in reasoning. It then delves into constructions and dissections, showing how to create new shapes by cutting and rearranging existing ones. The author also discusses tessellations, examining the different ways in which regular and irregular shapes can be fitted together to cover a plane without gaps or overlaps. This book, originally written in French, has been translated into English and expanded with additional material, providing readers with a comprehensive and engaging introduction to recreational geometry.
