The Third Edition offers many updates, including expaning on historical notes, Geometry and Its Applications is a significant text for any college or university that focuses on geometry's usefulness in other disciplines. It is especially appropriate for engineering and science majors, as well as future mathematics teachers.

The Third Edition streamlines the treatment from the previous two editions

Treatment of axiomatic geometry has been expanded

Nearly 300 applications from all fields are included
