Written pseudonymously by \"A Square\",the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePhysicists and science popularizers Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking have both commented on and postulated about the effects of Flatland. Sagan recreates the thought experiment as a set-up to discussing the possibilities of higher dimensions of the physical universe in both the book and television series Cosmos, whereas Hawking notes the peculiarity of life in two-dimensional space.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A Must Read Classic for Lovers of Science Fiction!\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fiction, Science Fiction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 97\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9798630248015\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Abbott, Edwin A.","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £1.79","offer_id":48017428545713,"sku":"SB-9798630248015-C4","price":1.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/9798630248015.jpg?v=1791755628","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/flatland-a-romance-of-many-dimensions-by-edwin-a-abbott","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
