The book explains the reasons for various definitions. The interactive applets offer motivation for definitions, allowing students to explore examples, and give a visual explanation of complicated theorems. More elementary exercises are added and some challenging problems are moved later in exercise sets to assure more graduated progress.

Thomas F. Banchoff is a geometer and a professor at Brown University. Dr. Banchoff was president of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) from 1999 to 2000. He has published numerous papers in a variety of journals and has been the recipient of many honors, including the MAA's Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Award and Brown's Teaching with Technology Award. He is the author of several books, including Linear Algebra Through Geometry with John Wermer and Beyond the Third Dimension. Stephen Lovett is an associate professor of mathematics at Wheaton College. Dr. Lovett has taught introductory courses on differential geometry for many years, including at Eastern Nazarene College. He has given many talks over the past several years on differential and algebraic geometry as well as cryptography. In 2015, he was awarded Wheaton's Senior Scholarship Faculty Award. He is the author of Abstract Algebra: Structures and Applications, Differential Geometry of Manifolds, Second Edition, A Transition to Advanced Mathematics with Danilo Dedrichs (forthcoming), all published by CRC Press.
