November 1, 2017 — Over the period 1948–1952, Lyndon LaRouche made a series of discoveries in the field of economics. Key to his breakthrough was his developing a fuller understanding of Bernhard Riemann's 1854 Habilitation Dissertation, which re-defined the nature of geometry, physics, and the human mind. In this class, we take up Riemann’s profound work.
Assignment:
-
Using the material covered in this class, quiz two people, asking them to define the geometric ideas of “straight” and “flat.” Did you learn anything from the ensuing discussion?
-
Now it’s your turn: can you describe what makes a surface “flat” without referring it to other flat things?
Reading for next class: TBA
