Its importance is an attempt to present simply and without mathematical subtleties the higher dimensionality of space. The author has taken the view that the space which we ordinarily think of, the space of real things is different from the space treated of by mathematics. There is an opening from the side of our ordinary space perceptions for a simple, altogether rational, mechanical, and observational way of treating this subject of higher space.
