Book Description
The Zills family is in Egypt to find the burial chamber in a pyramid. While exploring, Matt and Bibi get trapped in the tomb. Geometric hieroglyphs on the walls will help the find the pharaoh's mummy and the way out, but only if their math skills are good enough to read the hidden messages.

Book Description
This lavishly illustrated volume provides a strikingly visual approach to geometric shapes and transformations in 2- ,3- , and 4-dimensional space. Invoking Plato's polygons, Kepler's polyhedra, and Fuller's polytopes, the author presents, by means of hundreds of beautiful illustrations (100 of them in full color), many complex designs which may be found in nature or which may be produced by computer graphics programs. This self-contained work reveals how polygons, polyhedra, and polytopes are effective tools or hieroglyphs with which we may investigate and describe the macro, medio, and micro worlds or the multi-dimensional world without any telescope or microscope and without requiring guidance from others. Forewards by Buckminster Fuller and H. S. W. Coxeter.

Book Description
Is there a secret visual language all around us? What's so special about the shape of the Great Pyramid? Why is there something so sixy about circles? How many ways can you tile the plane? Lavishly illustrated by the author, this enchanting small introduction to one of the oldest and most widely-used ancient traditions on Earth will forever change the way you look at a triangle, arch, window, fabric repeat, ceramic pattern, graphic design, painting, spiral or flower. WOODEN BOOKS are small but packed with information. "e;Fascinating"e; FINANCIAL TIMES. "e;Beautiful"e; LONDON REVIEW OF BOOKS. "e;Rich and Artful"e; THE LANCET.

Book Description
Broad appeal to undergraduate teachers, students, and engineers; Concise descriptions of properties of basic planar curves from different perspectives; useful handbook for software engineers; A special chapter---"Geometry on the Web"---will further enhance the usefulness of this book as an informal tutorial resource.; Good mathematical notation, descriptions of properties of lines and curves, and the illustration of geometric concepts facilitate the design of computer graphics tools and computer animation.; Video game designers, for example, will find a clear discussion and illustration of hard-to-understand trajectory design concepts.; Good supplementary text for geometry courses at the undergraduate and advanced high school levels

Book Description
How can we be sure that Pythagoras's theorem is really true? Why is the 'angle in a semicircle' always 90 degrees? And how can tangents help determine the speed of a bullet? David Acheson takes the reader on a highly illustrated tour through the history of geometry, from ancient Greece to the present day. He emphasizes throughout elegant deduction and practical applications, and argues that geometry can offer the quickest route to the whole spirit of mathematics at its best. Along the way, we encounter the quirky and the unexpected, meet the great personalities involved, and uncover some of the loveliest surprises in mathematics.

Book Description
This monograph is devoted to a completely new approach to geometric problems arising in the study of random fields. The groundbreaking material in Part III, for which the background is carefully prepared in Parts I and II, is of both theoretical and practical importance, and striking in the way in which problems arising in geometry and probability are beautifully intertwined. "Random Fields and Geometry" will be useful for probabilists and statisticians, and for theoretical and applied mathematicians who wish to learn about new relationships between geometry and probability. It will be helpful for graduate students in a classroom setting, or for self-study. Finally, this text will serve as a basic reference for all those interested in the companion volume of the applications of the theory.
