About this Book

"Advanced Geometry: Polish Perspective" is a masterpiece that connects traditional Polish geometric approaches with modern applications. Written by renowned mathematician Prof. Andrzej Kowalski, this textbook offers a comprehensive exploration of advanced geometric concepts through the lens of the celebrated Polish School of Mathematics.

The book begins with fundamental principles and progresses methodically to complex theories, making it accessible for advanced undergraduate students while remaining valuable for graduate-level studies. Each chapter builds upon the previous one, creating a coherent learning journey through projective geometry, differential geometry, non-Euclidean geometries, and topological concepts.

Key Features:

  • Historical context connecting modern concepts to Polish mathematical traditions
  • Over 300 carefully crafted illustrations to aid spatial understanding
  • More than 500 exercises ranging from foundational to challenging research problems
  • Complete solutions to selected exercises
  • Applications to modern fields including computer graphics and physics
  • Digital companion with interactive visualizations and additional resources

This book is particularly valuable for students who appreciate geometric intuition as a foundation for abstract thinking. The Polish approach emphasized in this text is known for building strong visualization skills before introducing formalism, making complex topics more accessible.

Michael S. February 12, 2024 ★★★★★

As a mathematics professor, I've used many geometry textbooks over the years, but this one stands out for its unique approach. The Polish perspective offers fresh insights on classical concepts. My students particularly appreciate the numerous illustrations and well-crafted exercises.

Emily T. January 30, 2024 ★★★★★

I'm a graduate student specializing in differential geometry, and this book has been invaluable. The historical context connecting modern concepts to Polish mathematical traditions gives me a deeper understanding of where these ideas originated. The digital supplements are excellent as well.

David K. January 24, 2024 ★★★★☆

Overall excellent textbook that balances theory with practical applications well. I found some sections in the later chapters to be quite challenging, but the comprehensive examples helped clarify the concepts. The only improvement I could suggest would be more applications to computer science.
