PROBLEMS IN DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY

Along with problems and typical solutions the book gives brief theoretical information, which is particularly valuable for students working without the guidance of a teacher.
A complete theoretical background is pre­ sented in another Mir Publishers’ production DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY by N. Krylov, P. Lobandievsky, S. Men. The book is intended for students of higher technical schools majoring in building construction. The course covered by the book includes the following sections: orthogonal projections, axonometry, linear perspective and projections with numerical markings.
In addition to the basic course the book sets out the principles of the theory of shadows in orthogonal projections, perspective and axonometry. The material is presented in a simple but strictly scientific form and is well illust­rated. The book has seen four Russian editions and has been translated into English and Japanese. Spanish and French versions are in prepa­ration.
