520    "From geometry in motion to the possibilities of pi, this 
       stunning volume reveals how art inspired the beauty and 
       poetry of mathematical principles. The worlds of visual 
       art and mathematics come together in this spectacular 
       volume by award-winning writer Stephen Ornes. He explores 
       the growing sensation of math art, presenting more than 80
       pieces, including a crocheted, colorful representation of 
       non-Euclidian geometry that looks like sea coral and a 65-
       ton, 28-foot-tall bronze sculpture covered in a space-
       filling curve. For each work, we get the artist's story 
       followed by accessible and thought-provoking explanations 
       of the mathematical concept and equations behind the art. 
       From 3D-printed objects that give real form to abstract 
       mathematical theories, to mystic fractals, to Andy Warhol 
       as a solution to the Traveling Salesman Problem, these 
       artworks embody some of strangest, most beautiful 
       relationships among numbers and across dimensions." --
