The book Art Forms in Nature is a collection of prints, made by the scientist Ernst Haeckel, of an enormous variety of flora and<br>fauna from the sea-including microscopic Radiolaria, starfish, <br>and jelly fish. Since Prestel published it in 1998, the book has<br>been a favorite with artists, designers, illustrators, and anyone<br>who enjoys the wondrous forms of the natural world. Now<br>paper engineer Maike Biederstaedt has transformed Haeckel's<br>transcendent work into a three-dimensional book that allows<br>readers to appreciate Haeckel's vivid colors, exceptional<br>precision, and fascination with patterns and geometry. This<br>stunning book features seven pop-ups that allow readers to<br>see nature's brilliance the way that Haeckel did--as marvelous, <br>mathematically based creations that support his theory of the<br>unity of all living things. Certain to appeal to his huge variety of<br>fans, this pop-up version of a timeless classic will be treasured<br>for years to come.
