Minkowski geometry is a type of non-Euclidean geometry in a finite number of dimensions in which distance is not 'uniform' in all directions. This first comprehensive treatment of the subject since the 1940's is suitable for graduate students and researchers in geometry, convexity theory, and functional analysis.
