New York, NY: Springer. 407-433 (1999). Authors’ abstract: We here present an elementary account of the algebra and geometry of bivectors and of the biquaternions they give rise to. We then proceed to show how the latter allow a detailed study of the algebra and geometry of Lorentz transformations.For the entire collection see [Zbl 0913.00041].
