Edwin Abbott's beloved mathematical adventure novel "Flatland" (1884) is being introduced to a whole new generation of readers and viewers through "Flatland: The Movie," a dramatic computer-animated adaptation starring Martin Sheen, Kristen Bell, Michael York, Tony Hale, and Joe Estevez. This book is the companion to the movie--and the ultimate edition of the classic book on which it is based. A beautiful, large-format volume, "Flatland: The Movie Edition" includes: the full text of the original novel; the screenplay of the movie; essays on the making of the movie by the writers and filmmakers--producer Seth Caplan, director Jeffrey Travis, and director and animator Dano Johnson; color illustrations; and a new introduction by Thomas Banchoff, a Brown University mathematician and "Flatland" authority who served as an advisor to the filmmakers. By describing the challenges the filmmakers faced in updating a Victorian mathematical allegory for a new generation and transforming it into a compelling animated story, "Flatland: The Movie Edition" makes watching the movie and reading Abbott's book even more illuminating and enjoyable. You'll never think about the multiple dimensions of space in the same way again.

評分不知道是外国人想象力太丰富,还是我们想象力太贫乏,怎么人家就能写得出这种小说来,我们就一辈子循规蹈矩地思考呢?
評分有个低等的等腰三角形,脑袋还不到四度,不仅偶尔涂成某个商人的颜色,然后抢劫他的商店,而且把自己涂成,或者让人把他涂成(因为这个故事说法不一)十二边形的12种颜色。他来到一个集市上,佯装他人的声音勾引了一位少女。这位少女是位出身于高贵的多边形家庭的孤儿,在这之...
