Book Review: Fascinating, insightful journey into an alternative universe
Summary: 5 Stars
A.K. Dewdney has written a fascinating account of a two-dimensional world. What sets this book apart is the scientific rigour with which Dewdney describes how things work in (on?) a flat world.It's very detailed, and very entertaining. A good read!
