----- 形状：大自然的模式:三部分的织锦

ISBN: 9780199604869 出版年：2009 页码：323 Ball, Philip Oxford University Press

Philip Ball explores the science of the shapes we see in nature, revealing how, from the stripes of a zebra to the development of a snowflake or even a human embryo, there is a pattern-forming tendency in the basic processes of nature, and from a few simple themes, and the repetition of simple rules, endless beautiful variations can arise.
