Head First 2D Geometry

Advance Praise for Head First 2D Geometry

“Head First did it again. The ability to make the reader understand, despite tricky topics, really shines

through in Head First 2D Geometry! The way the information is presented and organized makes learning

cohesive and easy. Coming from someone who has struggled with many aspects of math in the past,

this book helps you understand the basics and build on them. I wish I had this book when I was taking

Geometry!”

— Amanda Borcky

College student

“Head First 2D Geometry is a clearly written guide to learn about two-dimensional shapes. The thorough

explanations of the material are adequate for both a first-time student and one needing a quick review.

The ‘hands on’ approach gives a richer understanding of the material than would otherwise be obtained

from a traditional textbook.”

— Ariana Anderson

Statistician at UCLA’s Center for Cognitive Neuroscience

“Head First 2D Geometry helps you learn that plane geometry doesn’t have to be plain geometry. This book

lets you see that geometry is not only in the classroom, it is all around you and a part of your everyday

life.”

— Herbert Tracey

Instructor of mathematical sciences at Loyola University Maryland and

former department chair of mathematics at Hereford High School

“Head First 2D Geometry is clear and readable, while other textbooks drag students through a thicket of

academic jargon. Head First has interesting examples, fun design, and a conversational style that the

textbook industry would do well to emulate.”

— Dan Meyer

High school math teacher and recipient of Cable in the Classroom’s

Leader in Learning award

“Head First 2D Geometry grabs your attention with inventive and clever applied problems. It pursues

thorough solutions with persistence and energy. There is one character who appears throughout the

book and delights me—a serious, seemingly humorless girl who suspects the authors are trying to get

away with inconsistency and poor logic. They always praise her questions and give in to her demands

that they level with her.”

— David Meyer

Retired college and high school math teacher
