Publisher's Synopsis

Geometrical Researches On The Theory Of Parallels is a mathematical treatise written by Nicholas Lobachevski, a Russian mathematician, in 1840. The book explores the concept of parallel lines and challenges the traditional Euclidean geometry that had been accepted for centuries. Lobachevski introduces a non-Euclidean geometry that allows for the existence of multiple parallel lines through a single point. The book is divided into six chapters, each building on the previous one to develop a comprehensive understanding of the new geometry. Lobachevski's work was revolutionary and had a significant impact on the development of modern mathematics and physics. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and evolution of mathematical theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
