Features: This book is a research outcome of the "Higher Normal Education Facing the 21st Century and Curriculum System Reform Plan" by the Ministry of Education. Based on the fundamental teaching requirements, practical characteristics, and teaching practices of the geometry course in mathematics education programs at higher normal universities, the authors have revised it multiple times. For convenience of use, it is published in two volumes. The first volume includes three parts: Geometry Fundamentals, Analytic Geometry, and Differential Geometry. The second volume includes two parts: Projective Geometry and Topological Spaces, as well as two appendices: Preliminaries—Sets and Functions, and A Brief History of the Development of Geometry. This book can serve as a textbook for the geometry course in mathematics education programs at higher normal universities and can also be used by students from other related disciplines.
