This elementary account of the differential geometry of curves and surfaces in space deals with curvature and torsion, involutes and evolutes, curves on a surface, curvature of surfaces, and developable and ruled surfaces. The examples feature many special types of surfaces, and the numerous problems include complete solutions. 1965 edition.
