Abstract
PROF. WEITZENBÖCK'S little book deals with the fourth dimension from many points of view, including those of geometry, physics, religion, spiritualism, metaphysics, mysticism, and phantastic fiction, and ends with an extensive bibliography. The greater part of the discussion, intended for the general reader, will be found easy and even amusing, but the author insists that a mathematical foundation is necessary, and some parts of this will be found rather difficult.
