Charles Hinton's contribution may be "...his popularization of higher-dimensional figures using three methods: by examining their shadows, their cross-sections, and their unravellings. Even today, these three methods are the chief ways in which professional mathematicians and physicists conceptualize higher-dimensional objects in their work." (Michio Kaku points out in Hyperspace).
