Books

[edit]

I will add more excellent books when I finish them.

Abbott, Edwin A Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions (1992) Dover Publications link
A short yet forcible novel about the search for extra spatial dimensions. Replete with satirical takes on 19th English social arrangements, Flatland is a thinly-disguised speculation about the limits of pre-Einsteinian physics and math. The quest to prove extra-dimensional regular geometric objects, such as a four-dimensional object bounded by eight spheres, pervades Abbott's prose. The best and shortest non-theoretical book about physics and math, which is probably why it has spawned so many copies. See, for example, flatterland and sphereland, which take flatland's general approach and apply it to newer discoveries.

Freeman, F D A Lloyd's Introduction to Jurisprudence (2001) Thomson, Sweet & Maxwell link
Wallace, David Foster Infinite Jest (1997) Back Bay Books link
