Book Description:

Provides a systematic introduction to various geometries, including Euclidean, affine, projective, spherical, and hyperbolic. Also included is a chapter on infinite-dimensional generalizations of Euclidean and affine geometries. A uniform approach to different geometries, based on Klein's Erlangen Program is suggested, and similarities of various phenomena in all geometries are traced.
