Rezensionen

"In this short book the authors present non-Euclidean Laguerre geometry, related Möbius and Lie geometries, and their transformations, and demonstrate how these geometries can be applied to the study of checkerboard incircular nets. ... Two appendices summarize defnitions and properties of Euclidean Laguerre geometry and generalized signed inversive distance. Throughout the text, many instructive diagrams aid the visualization of the concepts and constructions." (Günter F. Steinke, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2, March, 2024)

"The book is very geometric in flavour and contains lots of instructive illustrations." (Norbert Knarr, zbMATH 1492.51001, 2022)
