Tungkol sa ebook na ito
As a satire, Flatland offered pointed observations on the social hierarchy of Victorian culture. However, the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions; in a foreword to one of the many publications of the novella, noted science writer Isaac Asimov described Flatland as "The best introduction one can find into the manner of perceiving dimensions." As such, the novella is still popular amongst mathematics, physics and computer science students. The story is about a two-dimensional world referred to as Flatland. The unnamed narrator, a humble square (the social caste of gentlemen and professionals), guides us through some of the implications of life in two dimensions. The Square has a dream about a visit to a one-dimensional world (Lineland), and attempts to convince the realm's ignorant monarch of a second dimension, but finds that it is essentially impossible to make him see outside of his eternally straight line.
Tungkol sa may-akda
Edwin A. Abbott (1838-1926), a distinguished headmaster and Shakespeare scholar, wrote several books in the fields of literature and theology. His hobby was the study of higher mathematics and geometry, and this inspired his experimental tale Flatland, first published under the pseudonym, "A Square".
