Specifikacia Hidden Geometry of Flowers Critchlow Keith
Can we imagine a world without flowers? Their beauty offers us delight in their color, fragrance, and form, and their substance offers medicinal benefits. Flowers also speak to us in the language of the plant's form, provide cultural symbols in different cultures, and, at the highest levels, offer inspiration.In this beautiful and original book, renowned thinker and geometrist Keith Critchlow focuses on an aspect of flowers that has received the least attention. The flower becomes a teacher of symmetry and geometry (the "eternal verities," as Plato called them). In this sense, Critchlow tells us, we can treat flowers as sources of remembering--ways of recalling our own wholeness, as well as awakening our inner power of recognition and consciousness. What is evident in the geometry of a flower's face can remind us of the geometry that underlies all existence.
