Classical Geometries in Modern Contexts: Geometry of Real Inner Product Spaces Third Edition

Birkhauser, 2012

The focus of this book and its geometric notions is on real vector spaces X that are finite or infinite inner product spaces of arbitrary dimension greater than or equal to 2. It characterizes both euclidean and hyperbolic geometry with respect to natural properties of (general) translations and general distances of X. Also for these spaces...

Minds, Machines, and the Multiverse: The Quest for the Quantum Computer

Simon & Schuster, 2000

Just how smart can computers get? Science journalist Julian Brown takes a hard look at the spooky world of quantum computation in Minds, Machines, and the Multiverse--and his report is optimistic. Based in large part on the groundbreaking work of David Deutsch, the book mostly sidesteps the shouting matches of the AI debate and...

The Riddle of the Image: The Secret Science of Medieval Art

Reaktion Books, 2014

From monumental church mosaics to fresco wall-paintings, the medieval period produced some of the most impressive art in history.
