Review # 1 was written on 2016-09-22 00:00:00 Jim Overman It's boring. I don't really like math. Especially proportions.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-01-08 00:00:00 Aaron Colby I appreciated this book for how it got me to think about things I never spend time on. What is the definition of 'symmetry' and 'chaos'? Why do train wheels tend to move laterally? Why do people like those spiral wishing well coin funnels? I didn't understand a word of the mathematics, but it's an engaging book nonetheless.
