Description

Schneider, an education writer and computer consultant, combines science, philosophy, art, and common sense to reaffirm what the ancients observed: that a consistent language of geometric design underpins every level of the universe, from atoms to galaxies, cucumbers to cathedrals. He discusses numerical and geometric symbolism through the ages, and concepts such as periodic renewal and resonance. Contains numerous b&w photos and illustrations. Lacks an index and a bibliography. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
