Mar 25, 2013 - To this end, Orrell gives a sidebar cameo appearance to Princeton mathematician John Horton Conway, but not for Conway's lifelong obsession with symmetry, his latest book being The Symmetries of Things. Oct 29, 2008 - Now, the notion of symmetry grew out of things like reflections or rotations of objects in space. Oct 8, 2008 - Today the 2008 Nobel Prize winners were announced for physics. Yes, of course, you can compare prices and read reviews on The Symmetries of Things. Aug 17, 2013 - You are in the right place to get lowest price on The Symmetries of Things and buy it by best price. It was given to three physicists who described something called symmetry breaking. Jul 13, 2006 - Compared to other key concepts of contemporary mathematics and physics—infinity, uncertainty, undecidability, relativity—the notion of symmetry might seem a bit pedestrian. Sep 2, 2009 - Physicists are obsessed with symmetry, perhaps even more than people with an OCD. Oct 5, 2013 - Attractively illustrated–including 16 color plates–Polyhedra elucidates ideas that have proven difficult to grasp. Mathematicians, as well as historians of mathematics, will find this book fascinating. May 15, 2014 - As a biologist I can't pretend to understand all these concepts fully, but I am fascinated by the fact that the symmetry we see on the surface of things is linked to a deeper symmetry in the basic laws of physics. Patterns are usually patterns in some space. It's human nature to look at something symmetric and call it beautiful.
