"Foundations of Geometry" is a seminal work by the mathematician David Hilbert, published in 1899. In this book, Hilbert sought to establish a rigorous axiomatic framework for geometry, countering the more intuitive approaches that had been prevalent before him, particularly those based on the work of Euclid. In "Foundations of Geometry," Hilbert presented a set of axioms that form the basis for geometric reasoning.
