While the concepts of Euclid are taught during Elementary School, the work is important two any contributing and worth while profession and should be studied independently by any scholar, philosopher, mathematician, scientist, construction trades, engineering, or astronaut. What better way to understand the principles than to study the unabridged translated work.

I’m not sure how to review this. I mean, I am literally reviewing a math book. I did fan-girl over postulate 47, wherein Pythagorean’s Theory was proven. All the stars for that!
The actual translation was fine, although the ebook format doesn’t necessarily lend itself to studying the figures alongside the written proofs. And, at times, the figures are a little off. This causes a parallelogram to perhaps not look parallel, which can be confusing.
