One of the most widely used texts in its field, this volume introduces the differential geometry of curves and surfaces in both local and global aspects. The presentation departs from the traditional approach with its more extensive use of elementary linear algebra and its emphasis on basic geometrical facts rather than machinery or random details. Many examples and exercises enhance the clear, well-written exposition, along with hints and answers to some of the problems.
The treatment begins with a chapter on curves, followed by explorations of regular surfaces, the geometry of the Gauss map, the intrinsic geometry of surfaces, and global differential geometry. Suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students of mathematics, this text's prerequisites include an undergraduate course in linear algebra and some familiarity with the calculus of several variables. For this second edition, the author has corrected, revised, and updated the entire volume.

Totally Unacceptable
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I purchased this at $129.81 for a new book this book appears to be used & it’s obviously damaged. This is not what I spend my money on. I need this book for class. This is unacceptable on so many levels.

Comprehensive book. Great study tool for students or nurses entering Maternal Child specialties.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Excellent read. Using for review before taking on a new role in Maternal Child Nursing. Comprehensive. Great tables, images, and key concepts and skills check questions are included for each chapter. My book spine is wearing out but I've read more than 1/3 the book and been toting around in a bag and has had heavy use for at least a month.

It was ok
Format: Hardcover
There is what appears to be water damage to some of the pages. I barely used the book. Maybe twice the entire quarter. I hope they knew about this before hand.

Textbook
Format: Hardcover
After reading several bad reviews, I was worried about the quality my book would come in. However, the book is in great condition! It is a thick and heavy book.

Falling apart and HIGHLY repetitive
Format: Hardcover
I'm a nursing student. My entire class has this book. Nearly ALL of our books are falling apart. The cover completely ripping off as well as the binding. And the repetitiveness of this book is insane. PLEASE fix these issues. This book is too expensive to be falling apart like this.
