This book is part of a trilogy exploring patterns in nature. In it, the author examines how natural forms are formed and explains why similar structures are found in completely different environments.

Patterns are found everywhere in nature—in a cloud formation across the sky, in the stripes of an angelfish, in the corolla of a flower. Amazingly, this order is self-generated—all the natural patterns we see arise through self-organization. Scientists have discovered that the basic structure and processes of nature possess a tendency toward pattern formation, where a few simple motifs, when repeated, create an infinite number of variations of beautiful designs.

From soap bubbles to honeycombs, from delicate shells to the developing body parts of such complex creatures as humans, patterns of growth inevitably and spontaneously emerge, driven by nothing more than mundane physical forces.

This book helps us look at the world around us in a new way and see beauty and order even where we least expect them.
