It builds on the previously published book \The Universe of Conics\, including many novel results that are not easily accessible elsewhere. As in the conics book, the approach combines synthetic and analytic methods to derive projective, affine, and metrical properties, covering both Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries.While the history of conics is more than two thousand years old, the theory of quadrics began..
