A. N. Whitehead's Geometric Algebra
by Stephen Blake
2005
Number of pages: 280
Description:
On one hand this is a text on 3-d Euclidean computational geometry intended to be used in engineering applications. On the other hand, the methods of Whitehead's algebra enable us to readily deal with Euclidean and non-Euclidean spaces of any dimension, so it is natural that applications to the physics of space-time continually present themselves, inviting study.

Geometry and Billiardsby Serge Tabachnikov
Mathematical billiards describe the motion of a mass point in a domain with elastic reflections from the boundary. Billiards is not a single mathematical theory, it is rather a mathematician’s playground where various methods are tested.
