A. Ebgorelov GEOMETRY z y Mir Publisl1ers·Moscow ABOUT THE BOOK This is a manual for the stu dents of universities and teach ers' training colleges. Contain ing the compulsory course of geometry, its particular impact is on elementary topics. The book is, therefore, aimed at pro fessional training of the school or university teacher-to-be. The first part, analytic geometry, is easy to assimilate, and actually reduced to acquiring skills in aJ!plyiug algebraic methods to elementary geometry. The second part, differential geometry, contains the basics of the theory of curves and sur faces. Thfl third part, foundations of geometry, is original. The fourth part is devoted to certain topics of elementary geometry. The book as a whole must in terest the reader in school or university teacher's profession. Albgorelov GEOMETRY GEOMETRY A. B.
