Tilings and Patterns is a comprehensive guide to two-dimensional spaces covered with interlocking figures. With over 520 illustrations and more than 100 tables, this book provides numerous graphic examples of geometric patterns, along with related problems and references.
Accessible to anyone with a grasp of geometry, the book offers a range of topics, from mathematical models to artistic and philosophical perspectives. The self-contained chapters can be read independently, and each concludes with an excellent selection of notes and references.
This second edition features new material, including a revised preface and appendix, making it an ideal resource for students, professional mathematicians, and anyone interested in patterns and shapes.
