Ideas de Espacio is a book by Jeremy Gray that explores the history and development of Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries. The author narrates with clarity and rigor the efforts of Greek and Arab mathematicians, culminating in the works of Gauss, Lobachevskii, Bolyai, and Riemann. In addition, it addresses the basic mathematical and physical aspects of the two Einsteinian theories of relativity, even reaching contributions as recent and surprising as black holes. This Mondadori edition, published in 1992, offers a fascinating view of the evolution of our understanding of space.
Jeremy John Gray is an English mathematician primarily interested in the history of mathematics.
