This book isn't just about philosophy - it's a pretty accurate description of what it would be like to live in 2D space. I believe the same author wrote a book about living in a spherical world (maybe someone can correct me on this?).Originally Posted by Ozme52
I guess the point i'm driving at here is that it's not strictly philosophy, which you might already know
And about Descartes, he's considered to be the guy that invented the coordinate system (hence the name cartesian plane) among lots of other neat things. So he definetly wasn't stupid, in the sense that he was incapable of logical thought, (which he wasn't).
re-reading that last sentence I can barely understand what I meant...
