520 _a"This book is meant to serve either as a textbook for an interdisciplinary course in Mathematics of Design, or as a trade book for designers. It will also be of interest for people interested in recreational mathematics showing the connection between mathematics and design. Topics from the book can also be adapted for use in pre-college mathematics. Each chapter will provide the user with ideas that can be incorporated in a design. Background materials will be provided to show the reader the mathematical principles that lie behind the designs"--Publisher's website.
