Book excerpt: Excerpt from Space and the Fourth Dimension Ever since mortal man began his humanly mental attempt to learn the Truth about all things, he has endeavored earnestly to apprehend the real nature of space, time, and matter. Hungering for the apprehen sion of the Whole of Truth, he has expanded his thought in many directions, in his mortal effort to encompass in his thought the vast expanse of the universe, into the bygone ages and into those yet before him, only to reach the point Where he must stop, unable to grasp that concept which mortal limitations can never encompass, namely: infinity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of Higher Space (the Fourth Dimension) Memory-haunting phrase, often heard, yet little understood. In this slender volume the author has attempted to explain what is meant by it, and to usher the reader into some of those fascinating halls of thought to which it is the door. Although the exposition is along known and already conventional lines, it is hoped that there is enough new and original matter to justify the book, and enough simplicity of presen tation to justify its title, A Primer of Higher Space.

Download or read book The Fourth Dimension Classic Reprint written by Edward Hope Neville and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fourth Dimension TO the general reader, the name of the fourth dimension brings reminiscences of Flatland and The Time Machine. On hearing that to the mathematician the extension from three dimensions to four or five is trivial, he thinks he is being told that a study of mathematics, if reasonably intense, creates physical faculties or powers of visualisation with which the uninitiated are not endowed. Learning that Minkowski and Einstein combine space and time into a single continuum, he tries to believe in the existence of a state of mind in which the sensations of space and time are con fused, and naturally he fails. The position of students of mathematical physics, and of all but a fortunate few of the students of pure mathematics, is little better. Accustomed to regard a Cartesian frame of axes as a scaffolding erected in the real space around them, they can attach no meaning to a fourth coordinate, but having used complex electromotive forces with success in the theory of alternating currents, and having treated a symbol of differentiation as a detachable algebraic variable even to the extent of resolving operators into partial fractions for the solution of differential equations, these students are prepared to give pragmatical sanction to the most fantastic language. The pure mathematician makes no attempt to imagine a space of four dimensions; he lays no claim to visualising a world that is inconceivable to other men. Only he finds that certain notions. In algebra are discussed most readily in terms adopted from geometry and given a meaning entirely algebraic, and since it is to the mathematician alone that algebraic problems are of concern in themselves, fear lest the man in the street should mistake the very subject of a mathematical conversation he might overhear has not prevented the mathematician from using the vocabulary he finds best suited to his own needs. Now it has happened that the talk of a few mathematicians has suddenly become of universal and absorbing interest, and a dictionary explaining the meanings they are in the habit of giving to some familiar words is required.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Theory of the Mechanism of Survival: The Fourth Dimension and Its Applications The highly speculative and extrapolatory character of this book will be evident to all who are bold enough to read it. I wish to make it perfectly clear that I have no intention of dogmatising on so Obscure a subject. The suggestions which follow are purely tentative, and I am well aware that some of them are likely to prove mutually incompatible. But it is only by the bold formulation and ruthless rejection of hypotheses that progress is made, and even if we are compelled to abandon the Higher Space Hypothesis altogether - as is very possible the negative information so gained will be of the greater value if the hypothesis has first been given the fullest possible trial.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Four-Dimensional Vistas There are two notable emancipations Of the mind from the tyranny Of mere appearances that have received scant attention save from mathematicians and theoretical physicists. In 1823 Bolyai declared with regard to Euclid's so-called axiom Of parallels, I will draw two lines through a given point, both of which will be parallel to a given line. The drawing Of these lines led to the concept of the curvature Of space, and this to the idea of higher Space.
