Excerpt from Elements of Descriptive Geometry: With Applications to Isometric Projection and Other Forms of One-Plane Projection
The aim Of this treatise is to make a clear presentation of the theory of projection, to show the application of this theory as a medium Of expression, and by the discussion and proof of a great variety Of problems to enable the student to make a ready and intelligent use of this medium in the representation of all forms Of magnitudes.
As by far the greater part of practical drafting is done from the standpoint of the third quadrant, there seems to be no good reason why the principles of descriptive geometry, which are so directly and extensively applied in practice, should not also be presented from the standpoint Of the same quadrant.
Therefore, while the student is called upon to work freely in all the four quadrants, the subject-matter is presented primarily from the third quadrant.
In the establishment of principles great effort is made to be explicit; but in the application of these principles, for which purpose a great many unsolved problems are assigned, the student is left largely to his Own resources.
