A noted mathematician explores the metaphysical areas of modern physics and the fourth dimension to explain the history, geometry, and mysticism of a higher reality

From the Back Cover

This is the definitive popular exploration of what the fourth dimension means, both physically and spiritually. Mathematician and science-fiction novelist Rudy Rucker takes readers on a guided tour of a higher reality that explores what the fourth dimension is and what it has meant to generations of thinkers. The exciting and challenging journey is enhanced by more than 200 illustrations and a host of puzzles and problems (with answers).
