We show that the proximity inductive dimension defined by Isbell agrees with the Brouwer dimension originally described by Brouwer (for Polish spaces without isolated points) on the class of compact Hausdorff spaces. This shows that Fedorchuk?s example of a compact Hausdorff space whose Brouwer dimension exceeds its Lebesgue covering dimension is an example of a space whose proximity inductive dimension exceeds its proximity dimension as defined by Smirnov. This answers Isbell?s question of whether or not proximity inductive dimension and proximity dimension coincide.
