The adventure begins when the heroine, Victoria Line (Line), discovers in the attic of her house, the tattered diary of her great-great-grandfather, Albert Square (Square). Vicky is infected with the virus of the Third Dimension - much to the despair of her parents. Without them knowing, she follows in the footsteps of her ancestor in the vast universe of the Third Dimension...
She encounters a well-nourished gentleman (resembling a rubber balloon), familiar with a multitude of mathematical and physical spaces, and holding onto him tightly, "jumps" from one mathematical space to another, until she reaches... the ten dimensions.
Full of humor and wordplay, "Flatland" teeters on the borders of physics and mathematics today. Stuart's erudition and distinctive writing style guide us through new kinds of spaces and dimensions that we could never have imagined.
From the seductive theory of fractals and complex topologies to wormholes, hyperspace, cosmology, string theory, and higher dimensions, the reader embarks on an endless, captivating journey to the ultimate limits of space and time. This excellent novel about the nature of reality is destined to become a modern classic.
"Flatland" even shakes the most imaginative conception of the concept of "dimension".
Hold on tight! The ride will be dizzying.
