"Not very helpful"
I purchased this book to be a refresher for me in Geometry for prep for my GMAT. I was just looking for the basics and some sample problems.
This book does go over the basics but fails to provide sample problems and does not give many examples, only illustrations to explain a concept.
I also found the book to be a lot of 'filler' for example there is a chapter that mentioned "cool careers that use geomtry"
The final chapter of the book which is a quickie guide/summary is probably the best part of the book.
Overall if you want a book with problems or are out of Junior High School, I dont suggest this one

"no workbook? no tests?"
Ms. Arnone, your explanations are excellent, but why
aren't there any self-tests or a workbook? What's the point
of learning a bookfull of stuff and not remembering anything
when you're finished?

"Book is adequate"
This boox is adequate for Honors students...
Try find some other book.
But it's really good for practice

"A Textbook, with a tinge of humour"
If you want to learn about geometry, but don't want to look through a thick, school like textbook, this is the perfect book!

For every theorem or postulate this book teaches about, right next to it is a short explanation along with a simple diagram used as an example.

This book goes from simple geometry, all the way into a bit of trigonometry.

It is basically like a textbook, but with lots of humour and simple explanations that separates it from the rest of the other geometry books. This book probably covers everything that is taught in 10th Grade, but without all the exercises.

It teaches and explains geometry, but if you are looking for a book full of exercises, this is not the book for you. It should give us more problems or equations to solve, and that is why it lacks 5-stars. That is its only downfall. If you are reading this before you get into geometry, be prepared to know all the material and be bored to death. This is not exactly a bad thing though :) .

"Thanks Amazon[.com]"
I was surfing the web, beacuase I am a computer programmer of old and know all about webspace and word processing and things. Well, anyway I found this book very helpful, especially for teaching other people, something I find very challenging. I have always been a struggler when it comes to maths and as a general rule didn't understand a word of it. But now I can get up in front of my class with confidence and teach them about squares and triangles and things without having to send people out the room for doing nothing.

What our customer's say!

"Now Very Helpful", We purchased this book along with the workbook to give my son an extra reference for his geometry class. With few examples in the book to illustrate the concept and no worked out answers in the workbook to see where you may have made a mistake, it was a waste of money for us.

"Quick review but it might just confuse you", Easy read/review of geometry, but so many mistakes in the proofs that it doesn't seem like anyone edited the thing.

"Simple yet Effective", This is a book written in simple terms and explanations about Geometry. It is not a deep venture into the subject but is meant to be a thought provoking tool to stimulate detuctive reasoning and apply logic to material presnted in this book. This is a starting point for the person who knows very little about Geometry but is going to delve into it.

"Great for Home schoolers", I got this book for our son, who home schools and wanted to study Geometry. Since I am mathematically dysfunctional, I ordered it for him.
It's great; easy to understand, fun to use, and full of great humor. He loves it. Maybe when he's done with it, I'll use it myself!

"Not bad, not great", This book offers a pretty good overview of the subject, and is basically well-written and easy to read, except there are numerous typos, especially in the proofs, which sometimes makes them hard to follow (and hard to trust). She also offers numerous theorems and postulates, followed by a "Translation" into supposed normal English, but frequently her translation is no improvement over the original. So as long as you keep your eyes open for catching her occasional mistakes, it's an OK book.

"Making the DRY drinkable", I recall with anguish over 37 years ago, my 10th grade geometry class, dry as a Wadi in the Sahara. I slept through the first course obtaining a grade worthy of my snoring through an hour a day of irrelevance.
Today some math teachers are asking why math has to be dull or academic. This book is one which revives my faith a math teacher may indeed have real blood pumping in their veins.
This book I'd recommend to some teenagers and more so for adults, those 18 years and up who slept through geometry in high school.
I also recommend the basics of geometry start in school much earlier than grade 10.

I suspect however geomerty and real dummies don't mix well. Read this book and surprise yourself, maybe you're not a dummie after all.
