Non-Euclidean Geometries
'From nothing I have created a new different world,' wrote Janos Bolyai to his father, Wolgang Bolyai, on November 3, 1823, to let him know his discovery of non-Euclidean geometry. This book presents discoveries about the life and works of Bolyai and the history of non-Euclidean geometry. It also covers geometrical axiomatics and polyhedra.
