Selected geometric problems, which have been given in International Mathematical Olympiads (IMO) or proposed in short lists in IMO, are discussed. Additionally, a number of new problems proposed by leading mathematicians in the subject with their step-by-step solutions are presented. The book teaches mathematical thinking through Geometry and provides inspiration for both students and teachers. From the Foreword: " ... Young people need such texts, grounded in our shared intellectual history and challenging them to excel and create a continuity with the past. Geometry has seemed destined to give way in our modern computerized world to algebra. As with Michael Th. Rassias' previous homonymous book on number theory, it is a pleasure to see the mental discipline of the ancient Greeks so well represented to a youthful audience."--Michael H. Freedman (Fields Medal in Mathematics, 1986) Sotirios E. Louridas has studied Mathematics at the University of Patras, Greece. He has been an active member of the Greek Mathematical Society for several years both as a problem poser and a coach of the Greek Mathematical Olympiad team. He has authored in Greek, a number of books in Mathematics. Michael Th. Rassias has received several awards in mathematical problem-solving competitions including two gold medals at the Pan-Hellenic Mathematical Olympiads of 2002 and 2003 (Athens, Greece), a silver medal at the Balkan Mathematical Olympiad of 2002 (Targu Mures, Romania) and a silver medal at the 44th International Mathematical Olympiad of 2003 (Tokyo, Japan). He holds a Diploma from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens and a Master of Advanced Study in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge. He is currently a PhD student in Mathematics at ETH-Zürich. At the age of 22, he authored the book Problem-Solving and Selected Topics in Number Theory: In the Spirit of the Mathematical Olympiads - Foreword by Preda Mihăilescu (Springer, 2011), ISBN: 978-1-4419-0494-2 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Geometry, Plane.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85054156 650 0 Euclid's Elements.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85045517 650 7 Geometry, Plane.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 940930 650 7 Euclid's Elements.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 916405 653 4 Mathematics. 653 4 Geometry, algebraic. 653 4 Geometry. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Rassias, Michael Th.,|d1987-|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2011042860 776 08 |iPrint version:|tProblem-solving and selected topics in euclidean geometry|w(OCoLC)829754599 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2541897|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
