Query: Flatterland: Like Flatland Only Pompous

Please do not judge the classic "Flatland" by the bland "Flatterland". While "Flatland" was creative and alegorical, "Flatterland" is just an exercise in cutesy phrasing.I suppose that Stewart does a decent job of explaining multidimensional geometry to the layman, but is there a need to do it so condescendingly? And what is there of a message beyond the mathematical analogies? Abbott's original is a classic because it is socially relevant. Stewart even references this, but he makes no effort to provide a current relevance to his story other than to reference current culture.This book is an insult to the original classic. Those looking for a better understanding of multidimensional mathematics and physics are better off looking elsewhere.
