Using an inspired combination of geometric logic 
and metaphors from familiar human experience, 
Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip 
through a four-dimensional Universe, 
where concepts as diverse as entropy, 
Einstein‘s relativity equations, 
and the meaning of existence become 
clear, understandable, and immediately involving. 
In his own words: “Dare to be naive. …
It is one of our most exciting discoveries 
that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries.”
