Scientific paper

The role played by the dimensions of space and space-time in determining the form of various physical laws and constants of nature is examined. Low dimensional manifolds are also seen to possess special mathematical properties. The concept of fractal dimension is introduced and the recent renaissance of Kaluza-Klein theories obtained by dimensional reduction from higher dimensional gravity or supergravity theories is discussed. A formulation of the anthropic principle is suggested.
