Book Synopsis Divine Proportion by : Priya Hemenway
Download or read book Divine Proportion written by Priya Hemenway and published by Sterling Publishing Company Incorporated. This book was released on 2005 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number Phi, simply defined, is one plus the square root of five, all divided by two. But its myriad occurrences in art, nature, and science have been a source of speculation and wonder for thousands of years. Divine Proportion draws upon both religion and science to tell the story of Phi and to explore its manifestations in such diverse places as the structure of the inner ear, the spiral of a hurricane, the majesty of the Parthenon, and the elusive perfection of the Mona Lisa. A universal key to harmony, regeneration, and balance, Phi is at the heart of a tantalizing story begun on clay tablets in ancient Babylon, and which will continue to be written for centuries to come.
Book Synopsis The Divine Proportions of Luca Pacioli by : W.A.W. Parker
Download or read book The Divine Proportions of Luca Pacioli written by W.A.W. Parker and published by Barbera Foundation. This book was released on with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luca Pacioli stood beside the great Leonardo da Vinci and gazed at The Last Supper. He saw immediately that something was terribly wrong. An orphan from a small town in Italy, Pacioli came of age during the Renaissance seemingly destined for a life of struggle and obscurity. But Pacioli had the good fortune of meeting mentors who recognized his uncanny ability with numbers and introduced him to renowned artists and philosophers, royalty, and popes. At a time when many still used Roman numerals and colleges didn’t even teach mathematics, Pacioli was determined to share his passion and make it accessible and understandable. Apprentice to an artist, but a terrible artist himself, he became a master at calculating mathematical perspective in paintings. Tasked with teaching mathematics with no textbook, he wrote his own—followed by books on double-entry bookkeeping, chess, and the divine proportion. In this way, Luca Pacioli, “the father of accounting,” still has something to teach us—not just about mathematics—but about how we account for setbacks in our lives and how we determine what our legacy will be.
Book Synopsis Mystifying Square, Divine Proportions - Nature's Black Box by : Pauline Novak-Reich
Download or read book Mystifying Square, Divine Proportions - Nature's Black Box written by Pauline Novak-Reich and published by Pauline Reich. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume traces W.D. Gann's "Time Factor" and "Law of Vibration" back to the Chaldeans of 3000 BCE Sumer whose principal aspiration was to understand the motion of time. They divided time into years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds and devised calendars which helped them predict, and therefore survive, their two rivers' ravaging floods. Inadvertently, their findings also solved the mystery behind the ups and down of money markets. From ancient Sumer to Egypt, ancient China to the native peoples of Central and North America, civilisations unlikely to have had contact with each other built remarkably similar monuments according to geometrical proportions designed to embody cosmic knowledge that would last for all time. Each deciphered time cycles, created calendars and made long term projections of natural phenomena. The Square-of-9 is a matrix embodying nature's cosmic clock. Pauline Novak-Reich takes the reader through ancient math, sacred geometry and lore demonstrating the extraordinary achievements of people who lived in tandem with nature. Each one of these civilisations discovered Nature's "Black Box." Gann often reiterated that: "Everything in existence is based on exact proportion and perfect relationship. There is no chance in nature; because mathematical principles of the highest order lie at the foundation of all things...Vibration is fundamental: nothing is exempt from this law. It is universal, therefore applicable to every class of phenomena on the globe."

Book Synopsis Divine, Golden, Ingenious by : Lieselotte Kugler
Download or read book Divine, Golden, Ingenious written by Lieselotte Kugler and published by Hirmer Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2016 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does a mystic, divine formula lie behind everything that is beautiful? For centuries the golden mean has been a subject of endless fascination. The ratio of the proportion can be seen in Nature; it runs through artistic design processes and it affects our perception of our surroundings. But how much of this apparent 'world formula' is true, and how much of it is myth? The history of the golden mean begins with Euclid in the 3rd century BC. But it was only in the 19th century that it was raised to the universal constant of beauty. From this point onwards the 'golden section' was described in flora and fauna; the famous Fibonacci number. It determines the growth of the pineapple; and Le Corbusier optimised architecture by means of the Modulor. But does this art-historical phenomenon really play a universal role in the organisation of our world? Authors from all fields analyse the Golden Mean with regard to function, demonstrability and relevance, also by means of current examples from art and design as well as in comparison with the DIN and the tatami measurement.

Book Synopsis Beauty and Body Dysmorphic Disorder by : Neelam A. Vashi
Download or read book Beauty and Body Dysmorphic Disorder written by Neelam A. Vashi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-03 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the decades, research has demonstrated that in categories of life deemed to be important, beautiful people achieve more desirable outcomes, are judged more favorably, and receive preferential treatment. An understanding of the historical aspects, science, and implications of what the human mind finds aesthetically pleasing is quintessential for dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and others who practice aesthetic medicine as the importance of beauty in today’s society is what brings patients into clinics. While an element of dissatisfaction with one’s appearance is commonplace, clinicians should remain vigilant for individuals who seek cosmetic procedures to quell excessive body image concerns that are out of proportion to objective physical findings. Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a disorder of self-perception; it is the impairing preoccupation with a nonexistent or minimal flaw in appearance. According to recent statistics, BDD occurs in 0.7–2.4% of the general population; however, multiple studies have suggested an incidence of 6–16% in patients seeking aesthetic medical treatments. Moreover, a vast majority will at some point seek dermatologic treatment and cosmetic surgery. Such patients are unlikely to be satisfied with corrective procedures, and only 15% of dermatologists surveyed thought that they could successfully treat BDD. Therefore, Beauty and Body Dysmor phic Disorder aims to assist dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and other aesthetic providers in recognizing key characteristics as well as providing treatment strategies to help in caring for those with BDD.

Book Synopsis Gardening with Shape, Line and Texture by : Linden Hawthorne
Download or read book Gardening with Shape, Line and Texture written by Linden Hawthorne and published by Timber Press. This book was released on 2009-11-14 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gardening with Shape, Line and Texture bridges the gap between garden design books and plant reference encyclopedias. Leading landscaper Linden Hawthorne looks at plants from a designer's perspective (where color is often a secondary consideration) and emphasizes the important roles of plant shape. Part One reviews fine art principles and shows how they can be successfully applied to plant compositions by grouping plants into three heights: ground to knee, knee to navel, and navel to crown. She identifies different plant shapes—buns, mounds, tiers, fountains, uprights—and shows how the use of them contributes to the success of the finished design. Part Two is a plant sourcebook with plants listed alphabetically within their key plant shape categories. This innovative plant reference delivers plant information in a form that neatly dovetails with the garden design process and will inspire gardeners to look beyond color and begin to appreciate the whole plant.
