First published in the UK in 2006, this is the First U.S. Edition, issued by Sterling Publishing (New York) in 2009. Skinner, a leading writer on esoteric traditions, design systems, and architectural symbolism, presents the Golden Mean, fractals, natural forms, sacred proportion, and cross-cultural applications of geometric patterns with clarity and visual depth.

The dust jacket is likewise Near Fine, retaining full gloss with minimal rubbing and no chips or tears; unclipped with original price present. A handsome and well-preserved copy, suitable for both study and display.
