The Thirteen Books of the Elements

This copy is intended for the reader who already knows The Elements, and wants to investigate the influences of Euclid, and a vigorous account of every single step of the translation. It is important to know that this is more of a commentary on the Elements, rather than The Elements itself. For those who want just The Elements, the copy you want is Euclid's Elements. If this is the first time you are reading The Elements, this is probably not the copy for you. However, if you are pondering about the translations, or are curious about who might have influenced a certain proposition, this edition would be perfect.
