A Mathematical Space Odyssey

If I had had access to this text in my formative years, my entire attitude about multidimensional geometry might well be different now... The writing seemed to me to be clear, though succinct and efficient. The authors have managed to keep the prerequisites for reading this book to a minimum; certainly a year of calculus is sufficient for just about everything done here, and even a college freshman without any calculus would find almost all of the text comprehensible, since calculus is used in only a handful of circumstances. The book employs a number of nice pedagogical features... It's certainly something that anybody interested in geometry would want to take a look at - even if, like me, you didn't think you were all that interested in solid geometry." - Mark Hunacek, MAA Reviews

"This book provides a valuable resource for the study of solid geometry that could be used by teachers all the way from late elementary school through college." - Charles Ashbacher

"A Mathematical Space Odyssey is an excellent and thorough introduction to the basic ideas of solid geometry... The liberal use of diagrams and figures provides good support for the mathematics presented. The book is written in such a way that it is suitable for anyone with an understanding of basic algebra, with plenty of figures to support the mathematics presented... It would be an excellent textbook for an introductory college course in solid geometry." - Hilary Smith Risser, Mathematics Teacher
