Letter: Turn up the volume

Published 16 April 2008

From Paul Mander

I always enjoy Feedback taking the mickey at the expense of foggy thinking. But you refer to the difficulty of visualising nine-dimensional spaces occasioned by measurements in “cubic litres” (15 March). This implies the cubing of a cube – and, no matter how hard I try, the cube of 3 will not come out at 9.
