520    This volume is a result of the author's four decades of 
       research in the field of Fibonacci numbers and the Golden 
       Section and their applications. It provides a broad 
       introduction to the fascinating and beautiful subject of 
       the "Mathematics of Harmony," a new interdisciplinary 
       direction of modern science. This direction has its 
       origins in "The Elements" of Euclid and has many 
       unexpected applications in contemporary mathematics (a new
       approach to a history of mathematics, the generalized 
       Fibonacci numbers and the generalized golden proportions, 
       the "golden" algebraic equations, the generalized Binet 
       formulas, Fibonacci and "golden" matrices), theoretical 
       physics (new hyperbolic models of Nature) and computer 
       science (algorithmic measurement theory, number systems 
       with irrational radices, Fibonacci computers, ternary 
       mirror-symmetrical arithmetic, a new theory of coding and 
       cryptography based on the Fibonacci and "golden" 
       matrices). The book is intended for a wide audience 
       including mathematics teachers of high schools, students 
       of colleges and universities and scientists in the field 
       of mathematics, theoretical physics and computer science. 
       The book may be used as an advanced textbook by graduate 
       students and even ambitious undergraduates in mathematics 
       and computer science.
