A. Square, a respectable citizen of Flatland, lives in a world of only two dimensions, where women are straight lines, soldiers are sharp triangles, and the priestly Circles rule over all. On the eve of a new millennium, a mysterious visitor from Spaceland, a Sphere, appears and opens his eyes to the Third Dimension. But how do you preach a truth that no one around you can even imagine? Edwin A. Abbott's witty 1884 satire of Victorian society is also a brilliant, mind-bending journey through the mathematics of other dimensions.
