AUTHOR

Lobachevsky, Nicholas, Halsted, George B.

SUMMARY

"Lobachevsky believed that another form of geometry existed, a non-Euclidean geometry, and this 1840 treatise is his argument on its behalf. Line by line in this classic work he carefully presents a new and revolutionary theory of parallels, one that allows for all of Euclids axioms, except for the last. This 1891 translation includes a bibliography and translator George B. Halsteds essay on elliptic geometry. Russian mathematician NICHOLAS LOBACHEVSKY (17921856) is best remembered as the founder (along with Janos Bolyai) of non-Euclidean geometry. He is also the author of New Foundations of Geometry (18351838) and Pangeometry (1855)."Lobachevsky, Nicholas is the author of 'Geometrical Researches on the Theory of Parallels', published 2007 under ISBN 9781602064676 and ISBN 1602064679.
