""This is a wonderful introduction...You may end up amazed and incredulous."
~Leon M. Lederman, Nobel Laureate
“The mathematics in this book is a delight: surprising, insightful, and comprehensive… the result is by turns rigorous, entertaining, and eye-poppingly speculative.”
~New Scientist
“…a work that, although aimed at a general audience and presupposing no knowledge of mathematics beyond the high school precalculus level, succeeds in entertaining all audiences…Educators, as well as the mathematically curious, are encouraged to pick up this volume. The discussions of Fibonacci numbers in nature, art, architecture, and music are very thorough…highly recommended.”
~Choice Reviews
“The authors have breathed life into what could be considered a fairly dry subject by demonstrating how commonplace items make use of the Fibonacci numbers…there is a great deal of math involved but taken step at a time, it is not that difficult to understand and this understanding leads to a an even greater appreciation of everything from a flower garden to classical music. Overall, this is an interesting if challenging read for the layperson and a gold mine for the mathematically inclined.”
~Monsters and Critics
“…the authors have presented a compelling and well-developed book, and one that might well make converts out of some hard-core math phobics…an elegant book that enhances their argument that mathematics is ‘the queen of sciences'.”
~Education Update
“…delightful…accessible to anyone who enjoys or enjoyed high school mathematics. Mathematics teachers from middle school through college will find this book fun to read and useful in the classroom. The authors consider more properties, relationships, and applications of the Fibonacci numbers than most other sources do…I enjoyed reading this book…a valuable addition to the mathematical literature.”
~Mathematics Teacher
