Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces Between thoughtful discussions of choosingOne of the most widely used texts in its field, this volume introduces the differential geometry of curves and surfaces in both local and global aspects. The presentation departs from the traditional approach with its more extensive use of elementary linear algebra and its emphasis on basic geometrical facts rather than machinery or random details. Many examples and exercises enhance the clear, well written exposition, along with hints and answers to
