About this ebook
Sangaku are geometrical problems carved on wooden tablets. They were very popular in Japan during the Edo period (1603-1867) but the tradition got all but forgotten until recently as a renewed interest by mathematicians and scholars brought them back to the public attention. This book includes over 60 illustrations inspired by original Sangaku problems and focuses on the aesthetic appeal of this exceptional and unique demonstration of universal geometry principles. The images in this book are available, large format, @ http://bit.ly/JCArtGallery
