Extract

Our Association was founded deliberately to “improve” the teaching of geometry, and its work has extended to cover every branch of the mathematics taught in the pre-undergraduate years. It is no surprise that, among the many distinguished mathematicians who have contributed to this development, a few stand apart clearly for the extent of their influence. Judged by any standards, E. H. Neville was one of the greatest of them all, and this tribute, by one of his earliest pupils at University College, Reading, is written with a sense of deep personal affection and gratitude.
