| Summary |
Abstract regular polytopes are highly symmetric combinatorial structures with distinctive geometric, algebraic or topological properties. This comprehensive up-to-date account of the subject meets a critical need for a text in this area; no book has been published in this topic since Coxeter's Regular Polytopes (1948) and Regular Complex Polytopes (1974) |
