       -- Golden section -- Root rectangles -- Visual analysis of
       design. 
520    A mathematical explanation of how art works, presented in 
       a manner anyone can understand. Kimberly Elam takes the 
       reader on a geometrical journey, lending insight and 
       coherence to the design process by exploring the visual 
       relationships that have foundations in mathematics as well
       as the essential qualities of life. She takes a close look
       at a broad range of twentieth-century examples of design, 
       architecture, and illustration, revealing underlying 
       geometric structures in their compositions. The book 
       focuses not only on the classic systems of proportioning, 
       such as the golden section and root rectangles, but also 
       on less well known proportioning systems such as the 
       Fibonacci series. Through detailed diagrams these 
       geometric systems are brought to life, giving an effective
       insight into the design process.--From publisher
