Die Lineale Ausdehnungslehre Ein Neuer Zweig Der Mathematik / Hermann Grassmann. - Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2013. - xxxii, 279 p. ; 23 cm. - Cambridge Library Collection - Mathematics .
Includes index.
This remarkable 1844 publication by the Prussian schoolteacher Hermann Grassmann (1809–77) was largely misunderstood by the mathematicians of his time and went unrecognized for many years. However, it foreshadowed 20th-century advances such as vector spaces, dimension theory, and exterior products, and is now considered a foundational work in mathematics.
