Presents a collection of topics that reveal the rich, wondrous structure of what we see around us. Patterns in nature are the source of our geometrical understanding of the world. Abstracting those patterns leads to concepts from classical geometry. Extensions of those and other ideas of form have created a landscape of mathematical ideas, including Euclidean geometry, non- Euclidean geometries, symmetry groups, and graph theory. 538 DVD. 650 0 Mathematics. 650 0 Geometry. 650 0 Symmetry. 650 0 Graph theory. 650 0 Mathematics in art. 650 7 Mathematics in art.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01012330 650 7 Geometry.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00940864 650 7 Graph theory.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00946584 650 7 Mathematics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01012163 650 7 Symmetry.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01140811 655 7 Educational films.|2lcgft 655 7 Educational films.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726235 700 1 Starbird, Michael 710 2 Teaching Company. 830 0 Great courses (DVD) 914 FARM275563 994 C0|bGWV
