النسبة الذهبية
أحد الأمور المبهجة في الحياة هو اكتشاف واعادة اكتشاف أشكال النظام والجمال في الطبيعة. تظهر التصميمات عند تقطيع رأس ملفوف أو برتقالة ، أو في أشكال الأصداف وأجنحة الفراشات .هذه الصور ليست رائعة بسبب جمالها فحسب،بل بالنظام الذي تشكلت على أساسه. انه التناغم الموجود في الطبيعة.
-ما معنى وجود نظام ؟
-والى أي مدى يمكن أن يصل؟
هذه الاكتشافات البسيطة في التناغم هي التي نبهت الى اكتشاف "النسبة الذهبية".
تحقق الكاتب وقاس مئات الأشكال القديمة والمعاصرة، الدقيقة والكبيرة.وتوصل الى أن نمو الأشياء وبناءعا يتم عن طريق ديناميكيةالمتقابلات ،كما في الحلزونات الذهبيةالتي تتحرك في اتجاه متقابل في نمو النبات. وأوجد ارتباط الانسجام والتنوع في نظام النسبية في الأبعاد ،فكانت أشكالا جميلة لأنها تجسد مبدأ النظام الكوني الذي نحن جزء منه. ويبين أننا نحن البشر من ضمن هذا التناغم العام للأشكال ،وأن اتحاد المتممات المتضادة قد يكون طريقا لامتداد التناغم الى علم النفس والنظام الاجتماعي أيضا.
درس "جيورجي دوكزي" هندسة العمارة في هنغاريا والسويد وايران والولايات المتحدة الأمريكية. بحث في أشكال الطبيعة والفن في "مركز المحيط الهادئ للعلوم" في مدينة "سياتل" الأمريكية. وهو مؤسس جمعية " أصدقاء علم النفس الفتي في الشمال الغربي". ولد في العام 1909، وتوفي في العام 1995.

ليس من الضروري أن تكون معمارياً.. لتعرف عن النسبة الذهبية، أو ما يسمى الرقم فاي.. والذي يدخل في تصميم كل شيء من حولنا تقريباً.. حتى أنه يدخل في تصميم البشر.. فعلى سبيل المثال.. البعد بين العينين هو عين مضروبة بفاي.. ولكي لا تتشابك الأمور عليك.. ليس من الضروري أن تكون عالم رياضيات لتقرأ عن فاي..
ولكن من الضروري جداً أن تعرف ولو قليلاً عن هذا اللغز.. والذي لم تحل كل أحاجيه بعد.
لقد كان لي شرف المشاركة في هذا الكتاب، ولكني لست أدري أكانت المشاركة أم القراءة هي المتعة الأكبر التي سببها لي..
جدير بالقراءة.

Beautiful illustration of the intersections between math, music, art, and biology.

I checked this out from the library thinking that I would probably just skim it, but I got so engrossed in it that I read the whole thing. The topic is one of perpetual fascination to me, perhaps bordering on a minor obsession: the pervasiveness of certain geometric patterns and harmonious mathematical relationships all throughout the created order, and most specifically, the relationship known as the golden ratio, or .618…. This unique and remarkable ratio manifests itself virtually everywhere one turns, in created works of both Divine and human origin: spiral galaxies, hurricanes, sunflowers, the chambered nautilus, the human hand and ear, notable works of architecture and graphic design, ancient Greek pottery, paintings by the likes of DaVinci and Seurat, musical harmonies, and a Boeing 747, all just for starters.
No book could possibly be said to cover the topic exhaustively, but this is one of the more thorough treatments I've encountered on the subject. It explores numerous examples of this sort of thing which I had never even begun to consider. There are really fine illustrations and diagrams (many of them quite intricate, detailed and beautiful) on every page. So, in terms of a surface-level analysis of the phenomena, this book is superb.
What I find much less satisfying, however, are the author's attempts, interwoven with increasing emphasis as the chapters progress, to discover what this all means on a deeper, spiritual level. Though he never articulates such a position explicitly, it seems that he would probably be on good terms with what has since become the Intelligent Design movement. (This book was originally published in 1981.) As a Christian however, I am firmly convinced that the doctrine of a personal, Trinitarian Deity is the most obvious point of convergence for all the universally imbedded testimonies to intertwined unity and diversity which this book is dedicated to exploring. Though not really surprising, it is nonetheless disappointing to see this conclusion ignored by the author in favor of an unsatisfying and impersonal hodgepodge of eastern dualism, mysticism, and vaguely beneficent evolutionary principles. (That last point is especially a very interesting notion, one which I think would be most difficult to harmonize with Darwin's theory of natural selection.) At any rate, had the author been able to rise above all this, I might have given the book at least four stars.

في العالم الواقعي الذي خلقنا لنطوف به ...ونسعى ...ونعمل ...ونخالط الناس ونصبر على أذاهم ........هناك أنغام جميلة تعيننا على الطريق ....لربما نسمعها بأعيننا أنو نراها بأذاننا أو...أو....
ويا لها من متعة أن نجتمع بها والأروع أن نتعاون معها .......

It's hard for me to rate this book - it probably deserves 5 stars according to its intended purpose, but it wasn't what I was looking for, so I'd probably give it closer to 3, as I did a lot of skimming. I already knew that the Golden Ratio appears over and over again in nature as well as in architecture and art, which is really most of what this book argues, in quite explicit detail. I wanted to know *why*... but maybe that's asking a theological question rather than a scientific one. Because I wasn't getting what I was after, I did a lot of skimming. But if you want to be convinced that there is a strange recurrence of patterns all over the known universe that seem to be there for a reason, but left to guess what that reason might be... this book is for you. Get the paperback though, as this book is almost more illustration than text.

This book is the perfect Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response video to me. On numara on yıldız. If I'll ever teach basic design someday, here is my future students' coursebook. The only thing that bothered me a little bit is how the language and author's mindset can go "divine" from time to time, which I rather chose to consider as "poetic". Ignoring that part, this is a beautifully drawn and an eye-opening resource in order to practice ways of seeing, visual proportion, math behind art etc.

The Power of Limits contains everything we need to know about the hidden formula that governs all of our physical attributes on earth. As a designer and artist, this is a must read book that explains the most fundamental human psychology on the subject of beauty and whatever we may may find comfortable and familiar. It explains the phenomenon of the golden section with in-depth mathematical analysis. Any designer should familiar him/her selves with the law and design accordingly to achieve the connection between their work and anyone who witnesses it. Psychology may have dominated the field of user experience, design, art at this time, but it is mathematics that will carry us to the next stage of the design evolution, and this book will be the bible.

This book shows that great art is proportional with nature. The Egyptians, Greeks, Native Americans, practically everyone knew it as shown in the book -- so why is this news to me? The drawings show how the proportions are based on the Fibonacci series.

This is such an interesting book. concerning the Fibonacci sequence, the Golden Ratio, correlation between Music, Art, Architecture and Nature. very Easy to understand and full of Depth and Knowledge.

absolutely fantastic

I love diving into this book to see structures that underly nature, art and architecture, so butterfly wings are like the Parthenona and dolphin skeletons.

I LOVE THIS BOOK, YOU CAN GO AS DEEP INTO REALITY AS YOU DESIRE THROUGH THE CONCEPTS IN THIS BOOK.

everything needs math, u will discover that even plants know more than us about math... how, why, we cant know... its a good book.
September 30, 2012
shows mathematics behind nature, golden mean, fractals etc

The golden ration in nature. Fascinating.
September 4, 2015
another great reference book for the student of mathmatics in nature

Simply amazing and wonderful. This is a "lifelong book to read" that opens deep meaning and natural harmony present in everyday things. This book adds to life!
