Three perspectives on space and geometry

Ernst Mach’s volume brings together three articles that approach geometry through different kinds of inquiry: physiological space, the psychological development of geometry, and physical investigation. This arrangement places questions about geometric space alongside accounts of perception and the development of geometric ideas. The edition is identified as unabridged and unaltered, retaining the original footnotes and the comprehensive index from T. J. McCormack’s 1906 translation. Its subject sits at the intersection of non-Euclidean geometry, mathematics, and the study of how space is understood.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in non-Euclidean geometry and the foundations of mathematics
  • Those exploring connections between geometry, perception, and psychology
  • Readers seeking Mach’s three essays in an edition retaining notes and index
