This Geometry book was in great condition. Nearly New Condition. New books purchased from school were twice as much!!
By David Twisselmann (Westminster, CA USA)
I was a high school math teacher, specializing in teaching Geometry, for over a decade before becoming a stay-at-home mom and private math tutor. This was the book that I taught out of for many years. It's emphasis on proofs helps to strengthen student's minds in a way "modern" Geometry books don't. Yes, proofs are hard, but they train the brain in a way that no other high school math class does. Finally, students can learn WHY formulas and other math rules work and not just because "the teacher says so." My daughter will be taking Geometry in the fall, but I wanted to make sure she really learned the subject so bought this book to work in this summer.

This is more that a book on Geometry. It covers the subject of Geometry in a logical fashion starting with the undefinables point, line, and plane. Next it discusses the extension of these concepts.
Also include is a discussion of deduction and induction. Concepts in logic are covered in an elementary manner.
This is a comprehesive treatment of Geometry from a purely mathematical perspective.
But it does not exclude a high school student from its content.
Proofs are incremental starting from first principals.
Well worth the price.

My son is currently using this book in his (prep) school's highest level geometry class and my daughter is using the Larson geometry book in the highest level geometry course at her (different) high school. There is no comparison between the books. The Jurgensen book is far more rigorous. I am worried that our daughter is not being trained as she needs for a college science major.
By Lyra Rose (San Diego)
This is a terrible geometry book! It is confusing, ill-organised, and doesn't teach the lessons, it just gives you problems to do without teaching you how to do them! If your school is making you get this geometry book i would go ahead and get another one along with it so you can actually learn the subject.
