This second edition of Alexander Sofier’s Geometric provides supplementary reading materials to advanced students at various levels interested in pursuing mathematics, especially in algebra, geometry, or combinatorial geometry.

Within the text, the author outlines an introduction to graph theory and combinatorics, and presents numerous practical applications that will prepare his readers for the mathematical world. Sofier captivates his audience, propelling them to search for solutions of life’s problems- problems that previously seemed hopeless.
