Catalog > Mathematics in Nature, Space, and Time
“This is an exciting and unusual book.... There are explorations of art, culture, nature, accurate drawing, and model making, with a wide range of photographs and diagrams. This book is more of an exploration than a manual, but many nonspecialists would enjoy this book as well.” —Education Otherwise on Mathematics in Space and Time
John Blackwood worked in mechanical engineering design for nearly thirty years. Inspired by Lawrence Edwards (author of Projective Geometry) and his work with plant geometry, Blackwood became a teacher at the Glenaeon Rudolf Steiner School in Sydney, Australia, where he designed a math course for classes 11 and 12. His ideas were adopted by the school board of New South Wales. He lives near Sydney.
