Daniel Pedoe

Dan Pedoe (29 October 1910, London – 27 October 1998, St Paul, Minnesota, USA) was an English-born mathematician and geometer with a career spanning more than sixty years. In the course of his life he wrote approximately fifty research and expository papers in geometry. He is also the author of various core books on mathematics and geometry some of which have remained in print for decades and been translated into several languages. These books include the three-volume ''Methods of Algebraic Geometry'' (which he wrote in collaboration with W. V. D. Hodge), ''The Gentle Art of Mathematics'', ''Circles: A Mathematical View'', ''Geometry and the Visual Arts'' and most recently ''Japanese Temple Geometry Problems: San Gaku'' (with Hidetoshi Fukagawa).
