The Science Absolute Of Space : Independent Of The Truth Or Falsity Of Euclid's Axiom XI
Other Available Formats
Overview
""The Science Absolute of Space"" is a book written by John Bolyai, a Hungarian mathematician, in which he presents his theory of non-Euclidean geometry. The book focuses on the concept of space, which Bolyai argues is independent of the truth or falsity of Euclid's Axiom XI, which states that two parallel lines never meet. Bolyai's theory proposes that there are multiple types of space, each with its own set of rules and axioms. He explores the implications of this theory, including the possibility of a curved space and the existence of non-Euclidean geometries. The book is considered a groundbreaking work in the field of mathematics and has had a significant impact on the development of modern physics and cosmology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
