About the Book

Publisher's note: Patterns of the Universe was previously published under the title Snowflake, Seashell, Star. Contemplate the Patterns of the Universe as you color! Math is at the heart of many natural wonders and has an abstract beauty all its own-in the silhouette of a snowflake, the spiral seeds of a sunflower, and the symmetry of the Sri Yantra mandala. From the 4-D hypercube that casts a starlike shadow, to the infinite pattern of Penrose tiles that never perfectly repeats, these 57 exquisite designs reveal their secrets as you fill them with color. Art becomes an act of discovery-no math knowledge is required! In the bonus Creating section, as you join dots, flip coins, and follow other simple steps, 12 surprising images will emerge before your eyes. This is an adventure for all ages-and a treasure for artists in Numberland!

Review :
"2016 Academics’ Choice Smart Book Award Winner One of Amazon’s Best Books of the Month in Crafts, Hobbies & Home "Illustrations designed to introduce doodlers to a range of challenging mathematical principles." "Flipping through this new coloring book is a mesmerizing journey. From perfect hexagonal tilings to luscious sine waves to nautilus shell spirals, every line illustration by mathematical artist Edmund Harriss (and a handful of others) brings a hypnotic sense of harmony." "Enough coloring inside the lines—it’s time to start coloring inside the cosines." "Think coloring books are just for little kids? Think again." "An intricate, geeky coloring book for adults." "A beautiful math coloring book offering young and old alike the joy of patterns that are pleasing and rigorous, regular and creative, all at the same time." "A math coloring book for kids and adults . . . Irresistible!" "I wouldn’t have expected anything less from math adventurer Bellos and mathematical artist and tiling fan Harriss, whose personalities both come through in the book—from the beautiful illustrations to the playful style. . . . The range of types of math on display is super. . . . A beautiful object." "This is big fun. . . . Just looking at these pages is a treat—they have a life all their own, even before color is applied. . . . A coloring book with a sharp new angle." "Adds a bit of braininess to the relatively simple act of coloring while keeping the stress-relieving benefits."
