Review
11 of 11 people found the following review helpful. A wonderful introduction to the projective approach in math and artBy Paul HalpernAn innovative thinker and a gifted artist; Tony Robbin filters the world of mathematics through the nuances of human vision; creating masterful representations of higher dimensions. His new book stands as a testament to his meticulous scholarship of the history of projective geometry; in mathematics; physics and art. It is a thoroughly enjoyable account of how the notion of finding shadows of the fourth dimension emerged in the 19th century; permeated modern art in the 20th; and now represents one of the frontiers of computer graphics in the 21st. Along the way; Robbin shows how projective geometry could provide the key to a quantum description of gravity. A must read; for the curious anecdotes; cutting-edge science; impressive array of references; colorful art; and insight into how we can perceive the seemingly imperceptible.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Very technicalBy Retire to PortugalDo a review of geometry prior to reading if needed.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Adds a new dimensionBy David BurtonShadows of Reality discusses the 4th dimension in math and art. Robbin is very thorough both in his analysis and his historical explorations. I enjoyed the book a great deal.
