The Golden Number: Pythagorean Rites and Rhythms in the Development of Western Civilization

This book gives an exemplary exposition of the impact of the Golden ratio on mathematics, architecture, epistemology and ontological thought in western civilization.

Fast shipping, good quality.

Ask again after I finish reading it in six months or so.Thank you.HB

Don't pick this up if you're interested in the golden ratio - far better books exist. Folks interested in the relationship between math and art might find something useful. I only skimmed the book due to the ponderous and digressive writing style.

Good book

Excellent book if you are into this subject . Hard reading otherwise
