چکیده
This is the first volume of the three-volume-series of Felix Klein’s “Elementarmathematik vom höheren Standpunkte aus”, the first two volumes now in revised and completed editions and the third volume the first time in English translation. This translation is based on the last German edition of volume I, the fourth of 1933; the English translation of 1931, which was used for this new revised version, had the third edition of 1924 as its master copy.

Jeremy Kilpatrick emphasized the importance of these volumes thus:
