Symmetry : A Very Short Introduction Ian Stewart - 1st - Oxford, New York Oxford University Press 2013 - 144 Pages 17x11 cm PB
Include Index and Illustration
Ian Stewart demonstrates symmetry's deep implications, describing how symmetry's applications range across the entire field of mathematics and how symmetry governs the structure of crystals, innumerable types of pattern formation, and how systems change their state as parameters vary. Symmetry is also highly visual, with applications that include animal markings, locomotion, evolutionary biology, elastic buckling, waves, the shape of the Earth, and the form of galaxies.
