Can geometry be exciting?It can for those who can appreciate the beauty of numbers and their relationships.This eBook contains a meticulous geometric investigation of the 5 Platonic Solids and 5 other important polyhedra, as well as reference charts for each solid.Poly (many) hedron (face) means "many faces." Polyhedra are 3 dimensional figures with 4 or more faces, or sides.These polyhedra are reflections of Nature herself, and a study of them provides insight into the way the world is structured.Nature is not only beautiful, but highly intelligent. As you explore the polyhedra in this book, this will become apparent over and over again.The eBook contains a geometric explanation of the Phi Ratio and Fibonacci series, and a detailed analysis of the pentagon, which forms the basis for many of these solids. The pentagon is composed entirely of Phi relationships, and is integral to a proper understanding of sacred geometry.With over 140 illustrations , this eBook is perfect for teachers and students of geometry alike. It is a must for those who are serious about sacred geometry.This book is dedicated to those who can appreciate the logic of numbers and the beauty of nature, for they are both aspects of the same unifying principle.
