Introduction to Projective Geometry

---

This textbook offers a rigorous introduction to projective geometry, a field that studies properties invariant under projection. Unlike standard Euclidean geometry, which focuses on distance and angle measurements, this text explores foundational concepts such as incidence, duality, and cross-ratio using both synthetic and algebraic methods. Wylie meticulously develops the theory from initial axioms, progressing through the study of conics and quadric surfaces. Intended for advanced undergraduates or introductory graduate students, it provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how metrical and analytical geometries relate to the broader projective space.
