Abstract
THIS work bears as motto, “Geometry should be begun as early and as simply in behalf of industrial life as arithmetic is in behalf of business life”; and its object is, accordingly, to contribute to a general earlier beginning of the study of geometry. “The truths of form, as needed in drawing, have been made prominent, while not neglecting elementary ones of measure.”
A Primary Geometry, with Simple and Practical Examples in Plane and Projection Drawing, and suited to all Beginners.
By S. E. Warren (New York: Wiley and Sons; London: Trübner, 1887.)
