About this ebook
This book is the second edition of the third and last volume of a treatise on projective spaces over a finite field, also known as Galois geometries. This volume completes the trilogy comprised of plane case (first volume) and three dimensions (second volume).
This revised edition includes much updating and new material. It is a mostly self-contained study of classical varieties over a finite field, related incidence structures and particular point sets in finite n-dimensional projective spaces.
General Galois Geometries is suitable for PhD students and researchers in combinatorics and geometry. The separate chapters can be used for courses at postgraduate level.

About the author
Both authors have been active in the field for about a half century. They have authored several books and several hundreds of papers in international journals; they have also been keynote speakers at numerous international conferences, as well as having organised such conferences. The standard works on Galois geometries and finite generalised quadrangles are due to them as authors or co-authors.
