Step into a world of mathematical fantasy, where curious characters guide you on an adventure that will spark your imagination.
In A Guide to Making Friends in the Fourth Dimension, you’ll uncover the meaning of dimensions, explore the possibilities of a two-dimensional world, and even venture into a mind-bending four-dimensional space—all brought to life with color illustrations by Martina Pepiciello.
Along the way, you’ll encounter mirror life, play with fractals, and learn how a four-dimensional creature could steal gems from a safe without a key or even peer directly into your brain.
This book invites you to stretch your mind and be inspired by mathematical thinking. It will help you to overcome math phobia and plant the seeds of a lifelong interest in higher-dimensions.
Some of the most important ideas in theoretical physics and math are presented here in ways you have never seen them before. Whether you’re a math enthusiast or a curious beginner, the playful storytelling will help you think about things differently and may even bring you closer than ever to visualizing complex shapes like the tesseract.
This book is authored by Toby Hendry, host of the very popular Tibees YouTube channel. She offers calm and informative reviews of math and science topics including neural networks, the origins of the Turing Test, and more.
