Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical development of spatial forms and geometric systems, arguing that intuition often governs our understanding of these concepts, rather than logical analysis. Despite this, logical analysis of spatial forms reveals surprising results, leading to the conclusion that even the most complex forms are based on a relatively small number of simple forms. The author examines the nature of space, arguing that there are four main types: empty, real, continuous, and discrete. These concepts form the basis for three main types of geometry: Euclidean, Projective, and Discrete. Analysis of the logical possibilities of a fourth type of space and the geometry that would result lead to insights about the nature of the continuum and the limits of mathematics. The author's insights challenge traditional assumptions about space and geometry, encouraging readers to reconsider the nature of these fundamental concepts.
