Tilings and Patterns (Paperback)
Series: Dover Books on Mathematics

The definitive book on tiling and geometric patterns, this
magnificently illustrated volume features 520 figures and more than
100 tables. Accessible to anyone with a grasp of geometry, it
offers numerous graphic examples of two-dimensional spaces covered
with interlocking figures, in addition to related problems and
references.
Suitable for geometry courses as well as independent study, this
inspiring book is geared toward students, professional
mathematicians, and readers interested in patterns and
shapes--artists, architects, and crystallographers, among others.
Along with helpful examples from mathematics and geometry, it draws
upon models from fields as diverse as crystallography, virology,
art, philosophy, and quilting. The self-contained chapters need not
be read in sequence, and each concludes with an excellent selection
of notes and references. The first seven chapters can be used as a
classroom text, and the final four contain fascinating browsing
material, including detailed surveys of color patterns, groups of
color symmetry, and tilings by polygons.
