This is a step by step how-to book for making modular origami
models based on polyhedra. You will be amazed that these stunning
models are made out of something as ordinary paper. Author
Meenakshi Mukerji is the winner of Origami USA's 2005 Florence
Temko Award. You are bound to love this book if you love origami,
polyhedra, symmetry, geometry, and mathematics. Or you will simply
love it. The models presented here are proven favorites, the
diagrams having been wanted by fans worldwide. Expect hours of
enjoyment folding over a dozen models and learn about polyhedra
while you enjoy. Remember to visit the author's popular origami
website, http: //www.origamee.net. Some praise for her previous
books in the same subject, Marvelous Modular Origami (2007),
Ornamental Origami: Exploring 3D Geometric Designs (2009), and
Origami Inspirations (2010) is below: "Meenakshi's work is both
intricate and lovely. She's greatly respected in the origami world,
one of the well-known world leaders in modular origami. Her books
offer a nice exposition of the mathematical elements, but you're
not being hit over the head with math lessons. You learn things
without even realizing that you have." -Robert Lang, world's
leading origami artist "A whole book Origami Inspirations] full of
amazingly attractive new modular pieces, highly recommended to all
modular folders and those wanting to dabble in this pastime. High
standard of diagramming and model novelty applied throughout."
-David Petty, British Origami Society "Mukerji presents yet another
colorfully illustrated book, Origami Inspirations, showing in clear
diagrams how to make complex three-dimensional figures by folding
paper." -SciTech Book News "Ornamental Origami is a wonderful book
for both math and origami lovers alike. The author provides, clear
descriptions and beautiful photographs." -MAA Reviews "Ornamental
Origami is essentially a study of polyhedra but in a way that
brings out the symmetry in subtle ways. It builds up very
complicated results from simple modules so that even a beginner in
origami can follow and learn about polyhedral symmetry by
assembling them. It should definitely find a place in school
teaching or mathematics clubs." -John Sharp, The London
Mathematical Society Newsletter
