Overview
Rational Geometry: A Textbook For The Science Of Space, Based On Hilbert�������s Foundations (1904) is a book written by the mathematician David Hilbert. The book presents a comprehensive overview of the field of rational geometry, which is concerned with the study of geometric objects using rational numbers. The book is based on Hilbert�������s own foundations for the subject, which he developed in his doctoral thesis. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of rational geometry. The first chapter introduces the basic concepts of the subject, including the notion of a point, line, and plane. The subsequent chapters delve deeper into the subject, covering topics such as the theory of parallels, the properties of angles, and the construction of geometric figures.Throughout the book, Hilbert provides detailed explanations of the various concepts and theorems, as well as numerous examples and exercises to help readers better understand the material. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field of mathematics.Overall, Rational Geometry: A Textbook For The Science Of Space, Based On Hilbert�������s Foundations (1904) is a seminal work in the field of rational geometry, and an essential resource for anyone interested in the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
