Half a billion years of evolution have turned the eye into an
unbelievable pattern detector. Everything we perceive comes in
delightful multicolored forms. Now, in the age of science, we want
to comprehend what and why we see.
Two dozen outstanding biologists, chemists, physicists,
psychologists, computer scientists and mathematicians met at the
Institut d'Hautes Etudes Scientifiques in Bures-sur-Yvette, France.
They expounded their views on the physical, biological and
physiological mechanisms creating the tapestry of patterns we see
in molecules, plants, insects, seashells, and even the human brain.
This volume comprises surveys of different aspects of pattern
formation and recognition, and is aimed at the scientifically
minded reader.
