An illuminating biography of one of the greatest geometers of the twentieth centuryDriven by a profound love of shapes and symmetries, Donald Coxeter (19072003) preserved the tradition of classical geometry when it was under attack by influential mathematicians who promoted a more algebraic and austere approach.
