Visually engaging, illuminating and clever

I’ve now gone through this wonderful book and enjoyed it all. I’m buying copies for 4-5 professional friends to share the goodness with them. The thoughtful taxonomy of circle designs is clever and useful, reminding readers of the ways that circles could be used. I think it is an important intellectual advance, although an occasional example seemed more beautiful than illuminating. The numerous captioned illustrations make for compelling viewing and reading, enriched by the remarkable historical depth and international breadth -- a cultural grand tour.

Impressive and beautiful reference tool

Circles are important in my quilting and collage work, and this book has become a new essential in that work. It combines symbolic, scientific, mathematical, historical information in page after page of a visually stunning collection of circles. A favorite for browsing and research!

Beautiful book with lots of intriguing info-circles. Excellent resource for art educators and artists interested in visual literacy or formating graphic information.

Beautiful book

Like it's predecessor (The Book of Trees), this is a beautiful book -- wonderfully crafted, beautiful color photos, high-quality paper. [What I wonder though, is why the publisher chose to make it physically taller and wider than The Book of Trees. Since the covers are clearly matching designs, why wouldn't they be the same size, as part of a set?] The content is marvelous, with innumerable examples. However, there is less explication and commentary than in The Book of Trees -- and at times, with some of the more bizarre visualizations, I wish things were explained in detail. Overall, a great addition to your data-science, visualization, or design/art library.

No es nuevo como dice la descripción

El libro venia abierto y con una página pisada, si estuviera vendiendose como usado seria entendible, pero la descripción dice nuevo
