Can we imagine a world without flowers? Flowers are beautiful, offering us delig
ht in their colour, fragrance and form, as well as their medicinal benefits. Flo
wers also speak to us in the language of the plant form itself, as cultural symb
ols in different societies, and at the highest levels of inspiration. In this be
autiful and original book, renowned thinker and geometrist Keith Critchlow has c
hosen to focus on an aspect of flowers that has received perhaps the least atten
tion.
