Space Structures: Their Harmony and Counterpoint (Design Science Collection")

First published in 1974 and subsequently reprinted four times before being revised and presented in this new edition. "Space is not a passive vacuum; it has properties that constrain the patterns that exist within it." Thus does the author set the stage for a broad presentation of and informal introduction to the properties of polyhedra. For architects, crystallographers, and artists interested in aspects of design science as well as mathematicians, physicists, chemists, and biologists. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
