The role of symmetry in geometry is universally recognized. The principal purpose of this article, on the other hand, is to show how it plays many significant, hut varied, roles throughout the whole of mathematics. We illustrate this fact through characteristic examples; in most of these examples th

The Golden Section has played a part since antiquity in many parts of geometry, architecture, music, art and philosophy. However, it also appears in the newer domains of technology and fractals. In this way, the Golden Section is no isolated phenomenon but rather, in many cases. the first and also t

SUMMARY: This easy-to-read book demonstrates how a simple geometric idea reveals fascinating connections and results in number theory, the mathematics of polyhedra, combinatorial geometry, and group theory. Using a systematic paper-folding procedure it is possible to construct a regular polygon with
