Las mil y una formas de la naturaleza / Emmanuelle Grundmann ; ilustraciones, Florence Guiraud ; traducción, Teresa AgustÃn y E.B. del Castillo.
Summary
The polka dot suit of a cheetah, the striped jacket of a zebra, the ringed tail of a lemur, the quills of a hedgehog, the hexagons of a honeycomb... The human being has been inspired by the forms presented by plants and animals to create everyday objects, such as the wheel, and countless works of art. Mathematics has also allied itself with nature: the sphere, the oval, the line, the spiral or the star are not only decorative geometric shapes in the profuse and intricate canvas of a natural ecosystem, but rather the consequence of a long evolution that makes it possible to living things adapt to the environment and survive. These forms allow them to camouflage themselves, improve their aerodynamics or defend themselves against their enemies.
