SynopsisString, Straightedge, and Shadow is a classic reader for students when they are first learning about geometry. Using only three simple tools: the string, the straightedge, and the shadow, men discovered the basic principles of geometry more than two thousand years ago. This engrossing book reveals how these discoveries were made and show how they were related to the early civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece. It is beautifully illustrated by Corydon Bell.
