Abstract
AT last there is an English edition, translated in America, of the first part of Prof. Reye's “Geometrie der Lage,” of which the first edition appeared as long ago as 1866. The methods followed offer so many advantages, and the style adopted is so lucid, that we heartily welcome this translation, and we with confidence express the hope that it will awaken new interest in the study of this charming subject in this country as well as in America.
