Title: Geometry, Solutions Manual by Ray C. Jurgensen, Richard G. Brown, John W. Jurgensen ISBN: 0-395-67766-1 Publisher: Houghton Mifflin School Pub. Date: June, 1994 Format: Paperback List Price(USD): $39.64 |

Summary: Not a great geometry book.
Comment: This book fails to teach geometry properly. Sure it lists the theorems and sometimes examples of them. This book doesn't provide enough examples of problems and a better explanation of the topics in order to help the student.
Once in awhile an example will come up, but they only help for a problem or two. You're basically stuck trying to figure out a problem. It doesn't even explain how to work on proofs! You're left figuring them out on your own and wondering if you did them right.
I believe the other reviewers for the book are either the publisher and authors who want to sell the book. Also instructors who like this book because they have all the answers to them, so they think they know how to do the problems. I'm sure they would be stuck without their solutions manual!
There are far better geometry books out there, so teach with those and NOT this one!

Summary: A must have in every household
Comment: This is probably one of the best mathematical books that I have read thus far. This book must be read by every pre-college student who seeks the heavenly path to Mathland and Logicland or Philosophy. It was genuinely interesting to read and work the exercises that range from simple to very challenging. The chapters are broken to small units which make things very easy to comprehend, and provide innate feeling that you are making a lot of progress, all the time. What a wonderful feeling when you are doing math. The book contains a lot of background that will prepare you well for future studies of Math, Logic, and Proofs beyond Geometry. The real life examples are interesting. And last, but not least there is no danger that you will need a foot surgery if the book will fall on your feet, the book had more than 600 pages, but somehow the publisher kept it small and light weight. I wish I had access to this book in High-Scholl.

Summary: I really like this book.
Comment: This is an excellent resource for a traditional geometry course. I especially love the challenging problems at the end of each lesson. The homework problems have a wide range of difficulty that can accommodate the most advanced honors student, but it can also be used in a regular level class. No errors or typos in this book. Does not integrate technology, but I use GeoSketch Pad assignments to supplement in this area. I have taught with this text for four years and love it.
