This is a genuine introduction to the geometry of lines and conics in the Euclidean plane. The treatment is example based and self contained, assuming only a basic grounding in linear algebra. With numerous illustrations and several hundred worked examples and exercises, this book is ideal for use as a course text for undergraduates in mathematics, or for postgraduates in the engineering and physical sciences.
