""This is a beautiful book, containing many lovely examples at the forefront of geometric origami. Readers will find the patterns both challenging and satisfying to fold, and the concepts on which they are based form a foundation for many further potential explorations."" —Dr. Robert J. Lang, Origami Artist and Consultant, LangOrigami.com ""Ever wonder how paper artists can fold a sheet of paper into amazingly complex shapes? Then this book is for you. There aren’t many resources out there for 3D, mathematically inspired origami, and Jun Mitani gives us a whole book’s worth of fun, interesting models to help fill this gap. Geometric origami fans will love this book."" —Thomas C. Hull, Western New England University and Author of Project Origami: Activities for Exploring Mathematics, Second Edition
