Crop Circles – The Hidden Form
I cannot think of a more inspirational way of awakening interest in geometry and how it affects us, than to have the exquisite forms behind the crop circle phenomenon placed before us, as the author has done in this book. The Hidden Form shows a new way of experiencing the crop circle mystery, and it also gives us insights into structures of the natural world. A kind of hidden language is being revealed that the universe seems to be showing to us, but it is a language which cannot easily be expressed in words.
This book does a magnificent job in opening a door on to an exciting and magical realm.
