Kadison L., Kromann M.T. Projective Geometry and Modern Algebra

Boston: Birkhäuser, 1996. — 232 p.The techniques and concepts of modern algebra are introduced for their natural role in the study of projectile geometry; groups appear as automorphism groups of configurations, division rings appear in the study of Desargues' theorem and the study of the independence of the seven axioms given for projectile geometry.
Booknews A textbook for a one-semester undergraduate course introducing modern algebra in the framework of geometric applications; also suitable for self-study by readers a background in linear algebra and the calculus of several variables. Assumes to knowledge of abstract algebra.
