Differential Geometry Of Three Dimensions
by C.E. Weatherburn
Publisher: Cambridge University Press 1955
ISBN/ASIN: 1295658879
Number of pages: 281
Description:
The more elementary parts of the subject are discussed in Chapters I-XI. The remainder of the book is devoted to differential invariants for a surface and their applications. By the use of vector methods the presentation of the subject is both simplified and condensed, and students are encouraged to reason geometrically rather than analytically.
