Peek "behind the scenes" of the universe--and see math in brilliant
color!
For curious minds throughout history, math was truly an art. In Visions
of the Universe, you can pick up right where Isaac Newton, Blaise
Pascal, and other luminaries left off--by coloring 58 exquisite patterns
inspired by great discoveries in math:
- Intricate geometric designs like those that grace the mosques of Mecca
- Felix Klein's astounding diagram--drawn in 1897--of light reflecting
between five mirrored spheres
- A mind-bending puzzle so beautiful it once hung outside a Japanese
temple, and more!
Plus, in the Creating chapter, you'll help complete 10 additional images
by following simple steps that give spectacular results. No math
knowledge is required: Anyone can be an artist in Numberland!
