Review text

The author manufactures links to the complex exponential, Clifford algebras, Hamiltonian quaternions as background to Grassmann's vision. The source of the vision is the link between theory and application, something lacking for Clifford algebras for the century to 1966. The combination of Clifford's and Grassmann's work has led to the realization of Grassmann's original vision: a systematic vision of a universal geometric calculus, a synthesis, a tool for progress. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0853.00027].
