Start with a single shape. Repeat it in some way translation,
reflection over a line, rotation around a point and you have
created symmetry.
Symmetry is a fundamental phenomenon in art, science, and nature
that has been captured, described, and analyzed using mathematical
concepts for a long time. Inspired by the geometric intuition of
Bill Thurston and empowered by his own analytical skills, John
Conway, with his coauthors, has developed a comprehensive
mathematical theory of symmetry that allows the description and
classification of symmetries in numerous geometric
environments.
This richly and compellingly illustrated book addresses the
phenomenological, analytical, and mathematical aspects of symmetry
on three levels that build on one another and will speak to
interested lay people, artists, working mathematicians, and
researchers.
