Excerpt from The "Progressive" Euclid: Books I and II; With Notes, Exercises, and Deductions The present edition of Euclid is written in the interests of beginners, and especially of the dull boys to whom Euclid is often one of the most distasteful subjects of the School Curriculum. As many difficulties arise from boys having to reason about things of which they have no very clear conception, a series of questions has been given, some 230 in number, before the Propositions begin, arranged in groups to correspond with the pages containing the Definitions, etc. They will be found very simple, for their aim is to encourage boys to think, and not to puzzle them. Similar questions, to serve as tests to see whether the reasoning is understood, are given after each Proposition; these, and the notes, being intended to supple ment and test oral teaching.
