The recent postings regarding extensions of quaternions to higher dimensions are interesting, & they lead me to ask the following totally naive question : are there corresponding generalizations to higher-order spinors ? Can rotations in n-dimensional space be described this way ? Please forgive me if this is a dumb question. I haven't read anything about higher- order quaternions except for the recent postings, & I haven't really given the subject too much thought. W. Rivers
