About the Author
John Blackwood worked in mechanical engineering design for nearly thirty years. Inspired by Lawrence Edwards (author of Projective Geometry) and his work with plant geometry, Blackwood became a teacher at the Glenaeon Rudolf Steiner School in Sydney, Australia, where he designed a math course for classes 11 and 12. His ideas were adopted by the school board of New South Wales. He lives near Sydney.
Review
'Blackwood helps to unfold nature's intelligent wisdom in this profound and inspiring work.' -- Nexus: New Times magazine 'Blackwood's use of colour in the diagramatic artwork helps one vividly grasp how the geometric forms are generated from lines and points. It is a beautiful book.' -- Science Group of the Anthroposophical Society in Great Britain 'A beautifully illustrated book thematically related to Keith Critchlow's work on the geometry of flowers, but considering a whole range of forms in Nature.' -- David Lorimer, Scientific and Medical Network Review
