"The present booklet is a concise presentation of main tools of geometric algebras (GAs) with selected instances of domains in which these tools are sucessfully implemented. ... this brief is a very nice introduction to the subject of some important contemporary topics." (Mircea Crâsmareanu, zbMATH 1395.00007, 2018)
"The book under review is an abbreviated introduction to Geometric Algebra and some of its uses. ... At just about 120 pages this book offers a brisk and exceling view of the many roles of Geometric Algebra." (Jeff Ibbotson, MAA Reviews, February, 2019)
