OverviewEverything we perceive comes in delightful multicoloured forms. Now, in the age of science, we want to comprehend what and why we see. Two dozen biologists, chemists, physicists, psychologists, computer scientists and mathematicians met at the Institut d'Hautes Etudes Scientifiques in Bures-sur-Yvette, France. They expounded their views on the physical, biological and physiological mechanisms creating the tapestry of patterns we see in molecules, plants, insects, seashells and even the human brain. This volume comprises surveys of different aspects of pattern formation and recognition, and is aimed at the scientifically-minded reader.
