Synopsis

This book concerns the geometric study of solids and the insight it provides into the nature of our world. The origins of this field date back to the ancient Greeks, whose work in mathematics was groundbreaking and whose theories continue to form the basis of modern science. Specifically, this book explores the concepts of solidity, weight, and pressure: what they are, how they relate to one another, and the mathematic formulas for accurately measuring each of them. Through theory and exercises, the author seeks to illuminate the often complex relationship between these concepts and their fundamental importance in our everyday lives. Aimed at both beginners and experienced practitioners alike, this book unlocks the fundamentals for understanding and working with solids, enabling readers to approach foundational aspects of physical science with greater confidence and proficiency.
