Review: Good shape design book - Super cool book with useful instructions on drawing various shapes. I feel like I'm stepping back into the 16th century.
Review: Brilliant Little Book - It looks Much Larger on desertcart, but when it arrives in a small box it's even smaller than you thought it was! This just means that it's SPECIAL and you'll have no problem putting it where you can use it for reference again. Fantastic instructions on Ruler & Compass, from the most basic Geometry into more difficult constructions that previously, if you attempted such, were either filled with errors, or the end result of trial and error,(or you just gave up.) How about making an Ellipse? Enter the Authority; and there's lots to learn and enjoy. -Thank You, Andrew Sutton for such a useful "Little Book" that's Really Big!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the real deal
*by H***T on December 30, 2023*

this is fairly rigorous (as far as I can judge; not a math expert as noted below) and expects you actually to think as you are reading/using it as the "instructions" on the constructions are stripped to the bone. So far they seem accurate, however. Pay attention to the terminology or you will not "get" this. I liked that there were several pentagon constructions as I often want those and the older construction was pretty arduous. The section on "Neusis" methods was new to me; I am not a math specialist, so it was good to find something new. However, I have not yet really mastered the concept. I've liked Euclid since I was in junior high as it is such a classic case of solid logic. The neusis part is consistent with my philosophical outlook which is that "all knowledge is human knowledge" so having ways to do things that do not fit neatly into the original Euclidean system is within my epistemology which has a heavy emphasis on pragmatism. I note there are some other titles in Wooden Books that I will probably buy. For me, a book like this with the "basics" (mostly) invites my engagement in exploring ramifications, alternatives, etc.
