It has a bad layout and will definitely confuse you more than helping you understand geometry. This book is a nightmare which will intimidate you from even looking at geometry again. The rating on this book is really a "0" but I had to put a "1 star" because it did not go lower than this rating. Please do not waste your time buying this book.

There is another book called tutor in a book that offered more support but I don't know who sells it.

Rating: 4 / 5 Compact, inexpensive and easy to use – this book

has it all and it’s been field tested successfully

on a number of occasions. It covers everything in

two dimensions and even has a chapter on solid geometry.

The format is particularly attractive making it possible

to open the book to any page and dive right in. The

statement of each problem is highlighted and every section

clearly labeled which makes navigating the book trouble free.

In addition, the authors often give two proofs for a problem -

the first an informal presentation giving the motivation and

plan of attack – to be followed by the formal two column proof.

A student can read most of this alone and could read it cover

to cover with the help of any competent tutor.

If you are the type of person who learns by example, this book is for you. Rating: 5 / 5 This is not a primary textbook, but if you have ever had geometry, you can use is as a primary textbook.
