R. Buckminster Fuller.
Synergetics: explorations in the geometry of thinking.
Macmillan. 1975

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.”
