This is a course note on Euclidean and
non-Euclidean geometries with emphasis on (i) the contrast between the
traditional and modern approaches to geometry, and (ii) the history and role of
the parallel postulate. This course will be useful to students who want to teach
and use Euclidean geometry, to students who want to learn more about the history
of geometry, and to students who want an introduction to non-Euclidean
geometry.
