This early work by David Hilbert was originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. David Hilbert was born on the 23rd January 1862, in a Province of Prussia. Hilbert is recognised as one of the most influential and universal mathematicians of the 19th and early 20th centuries. He discovered and developed a broad range of fundamental ideas in many areas, including invariant theory and the axiomatization of geometry. He also formulated the theory of Hilbert spaces, one of the foundations of functional analysis.

Well-conceived text with many special features covers functions and graphs, straight lines and conic sections, new coordinate systems, the derivative, much more. Many examples, exercises, practice problems, with answers. Advanced undergraduate/graduate-level. 1984 edition.

Concise text covers basics of solid analytic geometry and provides ample material for a one-semester course. Additional chapters on spherical coordinates and projective geometry suitable for longer courses or supplementary study. 1949 edition.

Excerpt from Analytic Geometry While the book is to be regarded as a text-book of plane analytic geometry, the concluding chapter is devoted to solid geometry. Only the barest outline of some of the fundamental principles of this subject is included, enough to enable the student, when he studies calculus, and wishes to apply its principles to problems involving solids and surfaces, to feel that he is not on entirely new ground.
