Here is a book that all mathematicians and libraries would love to have, but very few people would have the discipline to write. This is the ultimate gemoetry reference guide, written in a style that is understandable by all students of mathematics. It has an excellent biographical section and a fascinating chronological timeline that let's you know what happened in what year.

I want to personally thank Dr. Gorini for taking on a project that many of us in the mathematics field have avoided for many years. It belongs on all our shelves.
