Inhaltsangabe

Intended to inspire classroom teachers, this book includes exercises and a number of figures to use in explaining concepts. Topics include the theory of manifolds, including descriptions of smoothness, differentiability and analyticity, the area of a figure on the plane and the volume of a solid body in space including proof of the Bolyai- Gerwein theorem about scissors-congruent polynomials and Dehn's solution of the Third Hilbert Problem. Although written for high school teachers to aid them with their lessons, this can also serve as a self-study guide or for general reading on the subjects.
