Pentagons and Pentagrams

An Illustrated History

Eli Maor , Illus. Eugen Jost
From mystical ancient symbols to the arrangement of flower petals, this celebration of the geometry deriving from the number five explores the mathematics as well as history and cultural significance. Roman coins and dodecahedrons, Renaissance artists and the golden ratio, five-fold symmetry in the organic world as well as in crystals and the architecture of the US military headquarters are all part of the story.
