Excerpt from Plane Geometry Suggestive Method It is believed that the subject of limits is treated in so simple a manner that beginners can grasp it. An edition, consisting of the theorems, the diagrams, the things given, and the things to prove, without suggestions for demonstration, will accompany the book for class-room use. It is hoped that this will be found as valuable in Geometry teaching as "text editions" have been in teaching the classics. This "Class-Room Edition" will save the time of the recitation usually consumed by the pupils in drawing the figures upon the blackboard. The complete edition of the book can be banished from the recitation and the temptation to get assistance from the text eliminated. The blackboards can thus be reserved for original demonstrations of exercises and for suggestive work by the teacher. The Class-Room Edition will lengthen the daily recitation, and make it possible for more work to be done in a year. The author wishes to thank those who have given the previous edition of the book so kind a reception. It is hoped that the present book will more fully meet the needs of all teachers who wish their pupils to make the largest possible growth in independent thinking in Geometry. Acknowledgment should be made of the scholarly criticism of Dr. C. A. Van Velzer, Head of the Department of Mathematics in the University of Wisconsin, for his helpful services in preparing for publication the manuscript of the first edition of the book. Thanks are also due for valuable suggestions in reading the proof to Mr. G. E. Bunsa, Superintendent of Schools, Columbus, Wisconsin, Mr. R. L. Sandwick, Principal of the Deerfield Township High School, Highland Park, Illinois, Miss Genevieve Decker, Teacher of Mathematics in the High School, Janesville, Wisconsin, Miss Maud Averill, Teacher of Mathematics in the High School, Whitewater, Wisconsin, and to Mr. Frank P. Dodge, Instructor in Mathematics in the Roxbury Latin School, Roxbury, Massachusetts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
