Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a captivating exploration of the history and development of non-Euclidean geometry, a revolutionary field of mathematics that challenges the fundamental axioms of traditional geometry. The author delves into the groundbreaking work of Nikolai Lobachevsky, a Russian mathematician who, alongside the Hungarian Wolfgang Bolyai and the German Carl Friedrich Gauss, dared to question Euclid's postulates, paving the way for a new understanding of space. The book traces the evolution of this controversial concept, meticulously detailing the struggles and triumphs of mathematicians who attempted to prove or disprove Euclid's "vicious assumption" - the infamous fifth postulate. Through a blend of historical context and insightful analysis, the book illuminates the profound impact of non-Euclidean geometry on the intellectual landscape, highlighting its implications for not only mathematics but also philosophy and our very perception of the universe. Ultimately, the book presents a compelling argument that the pursuit of alternative geometric systems has yielded a deeper understanding of the nature of space and its potential complexities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781440060755_0
