I'm reading this in math class right now...I'm in pre-algebra. I really am not into this book, it doesn't even deserve 1 star. It is really boring, and I dont look forward to reading any more

The misogyny and elitist perspectives appear to be satirical and 'mirror like' to our own social issues. However, the dimensional perspective (!) is a must read for any undergraduate of Physics and /or Philosophy.

Written by a mathematician but entirely divine. The way he describes how one could perceive one another is so lucid you would think he's been writing his whole life--though methodically written--it is still quite precise and with poise. I just love this book and has opened up so many new things. It changes you're perception on how you view things and in the way you view things. Definitely one of my favorite books! :)
