I plan to upload the entire book as a single PDF when I finish the next chapter (on the cycloid). That will probably be early next week.

I used the original book by Arthur Engel for many years. He was an inspirational teacher.

The MAA tried very hard to publish the book, but I kept adding new material, and a text consisting of math 'selections' rather than a single theme is a hard sell in today's publishing environment.
