Abbott's hallucinatory tale has captivated readers for more than a hundred years--including contemporary scientists such as Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. In this mind-expanding satire, Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions describes a two-dimensional world organized by strict caste system of geometrical forms. The narrator, A. Square, introduces us to Flatland before describing his revelatory explorations of Lineland, a one-dimensional world, and Pointland, a world of no dimensions, and the hitherto inconceivable three-dimensional world of Spaceland, through which he is ushered by his Virgil-like guide, Sphere. In Flatland, Square is regarded as a heretic and imprisoned for his belief in the existence of a third, and possibly even a fourth, dimension. Although it did not achieve popular success on its publication in 1884, Flatland gained a broad audience after the publication of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, which focused attention on the concept of a fourth dimension. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YOURBOOKX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52994479391037,"sku":null,"price":28.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/9315\/1037\/files\/61rCstSXVRL._SY385.jpg?v=1789040231","url":"https:\/\/yourbookx.com\/products\/flatland-a-romance-of-many-dimensions-paperback-english-book","provider":"YOURBOOKX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
