Book/ebook recommendations on advanced Euclidean Geometry

[Moderator edit: This is going to be the topic for all recommendations of literature about olympiad and advanced Euclidean geometry.]

hi im trying to learn more on some more geometric theorems, to attack my problems. im specifically looking for more advanced things, not the usual (menelaos, ceva,angle bisector, desargues, power of point, etc); more like projective geometry , homothecy , similarity and all these new things that i could use to solve olympiad problems. so could anyone tell me what i should know and where can i find it??? thanks Mr. Green

well, there are transformation, inversion, projective, and stuff using complex coordinate plane and vectors (don't ask me, i don't know any of these stuff. I'm noob)

you can find them at: http://www.unl.edu/amc/a-activities/a4-for-students/s-index.html

go to the part where it says download the notes for geometry, download the post script one, i think the latex one is corrupted (some part gives u weird things)

postscript download: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.htm

download the gsview and the ghostscript. and open the file.

there is the right arrow button somewhere on top to scroll the page, but you can use gsview to convert it to pdf.

I'm using this notes to geometry, although i hardly can solve any practice problem in the notes....

When I try to load the pdf file, it says it's damaged and could not be repaired.

Can anyone recommend a good book teaching how to use inversion in Olympiad standard problems through many examples and exercises?
