What I really like about the internet is the connection you can make with cultures around the world. And this culture reveals itself in the most unexpected ways - geometry, Peruvian style, for example. The author, a geometry and computer teacher in Lima, Peru, writes in his email, "Geometry Step by Step from the Land of the Incas provides an eclectic mix of sound, science, and Incan history intended to interest students in Euclidean geometry. Recent additions include Clifford's Circle Chain Theorems. Simson Line (proof of Simson line) [and] The Raft of the Medusa (problem solving with fractals and animation)."
