Book Description
Ante up, dreamers... Circus stunt rider TJ Breckenridge is devastated when her horse Cowhead is snatched from the big top one night. Because Cowhead is no ordinary circus animal: secret daughter of TJ's lover, she is simultaneously horse and human. TJ hires a drifter called Cantos Can to help her find and rescue Cowhead. Together they ride out into a desert populated by weird animals, feuding mystery cults, and the remnants of a lost culture known only as the Great Invisibles. But then Cantos goes missing too... and TJ is forced to choose sides in a war where dreams are deadly weapons. Combining hallucinatory imagery with pulp-fiction plotting, The Golden Cut is a tale of tripped-out gunslingers, puppet-headed outlaws, crystal caves, and magicians on the rampage.

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 37
Book Description
The golden ratio is an irrational number and simultaneously an excellent technique that bestows a lot to those who are into the designing field. It helps in a number of things that are essential for the proper construction of architecture as well as designing. The golden ratio has a lot of names that are famous for the discrete tasks that can be performed by the golden ratio, and so accordingly it is named. The golden ratio was used by a number of distinguished mathematicians and artists who have also created some great masterpieces that are well known and famous worldwide. These masterpieces include the many architectural buildings, sculptures, images, paintings, designs, etc. The golden ratio is an amazing technique and probably the only technique that is present in a number of domains such as mathematics, physics, art, architecture, paintings, etc. The golden ratio is directly related to nature, which makes it more interesting and easygoing.

The Golden Ratio And Fibonacci Numbers
Author: Richard A Dunlap
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814496944
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
In this invaluable book, the basic mathematical properties of the golden ratio and its occurrence in the dimensions of two- and three-dimensional figures with fivefold symmetry are discussed. In addition, the generation of the Fibonacci series and generalized Fibonacci series and their relationship to the golden ratio are presented. These concepts are applied to algorithms for searching and function minimization. The Fibonacci sequence is viewed as a one-dimensional aperiodic, lattice and these ideas are extended to two- and three-dimensional Penrose tilings and the concept of incommensurate projections. The structural properties of aperiodic crystals and the growth of certain biological organisms are described in terms of Fibonacci sequences.
