Summary
Decoding Projective Geometries over Finite Fields: A Comprehensive Treatise
This book delves into the combinatorics of projective spaces over a finite field, focusing particularly on one and two dimensions. Together with its companion volumes, “Finite projective spaces over three dimensions” (1985) and “General Galois geometries” (1991), it forms a comprehensive exploration of this mathematical domain.
The subject matter holds intrinsic interest and finds practical applicati…

Critics Review
The first edition of this work appeared in 1979, and was immediately recognized as an outstanding contribution to the field of finite geometry; the present volume is a complete revision of the earlier work...The book can serve as the text for a basic course...or as a detailed reference work for all topics in spaces of dimension two...The work is an indispensable aid to all workers in finite geometry, from beginning students to advanced researchers.'Short Book Reviews…A complete reworking [of the first edition]. As before, the volume is concisely but clearly written, and contains a wealth of interesting material…the new trilogy, comprising the 1998, 1986 and 1991 volumes, looks set to be the standard reference work on projective spaces over finite fields for many years to come.‘Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society’Snap it up !’ Bulletin London mathematical Society
