On quaternions and octonions : their geometry, arithmetic, and symmetry / John H. Conway [and] Derek A. Smith.

This book investigates the geometry of quaternion and octonion algebras. Following a comprehensive historical introduction, the book illuminates the special properties of 3- and 4-dimensional Euclidean spaces using quaternions, leading to enumerations of the corresponding finite groups of symmetries...
