Non-Riemannian Geometry deals basically with manifolds dominated by the geometry of paths co-developed by the distinguished mathematician Luther Pfahler Eisenhart, the author of this text. He begins with a consideration of asymmetric connections, and then proceeds to a contrasting survey of symmetric connections. Discusses projective geometry of paths and the geometry of sub-spaces. 1927 edition.
