Excerpt from Prolegomena to Analytical Geometry in Anisotropic Euclidean Space of Three Dimensions
Hence the bewilderment of the man in the street, who does not suspect, for example, that when an event is described as 'a point in a four-dimensional space where time is imaginary', five terms with which he is familiar are being used with technical meanings that he does not know.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an essential introduction to analytical geometry and principles of measurement and projection in multidimensional spaces. It extends the framework of Euclidean geometry from familiar two dimensions to three dimensions and beyond. The author, a distinguished mathematician, presents these concepts with clarity, providing a solid foundation for understanding the behaviour of complex numbers and the geometry of objects in spaces with more than three dimensions. The book offers a rich exploration of vectors, rotors, frames of reference, and their applications in analytical geometry. It delves into the intricacies of angles between directions and planes, providing a framework for understanding and solving complex geometrical problems. Furthermore, it examines the concept of prepared spaces, where fundamental magnitudes and angles can be precisely defined. Through meticulously developed arguments and examples, this book empowers readers to extend the principles of geometry to higher dimensions, facilitating a deeper understanding of the geometry of real and complex spaces. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
