||0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.| Not for the Fearful|By Christina Kreiser|A good book for anyone willing to work through it only because it's highly detailed and in-depth. Especially for those who are fascinated with mathematics and physics (examples of symmetry in the natural world). I enjoyed Ian Stewart's Does God Play Dice (Dynamical Systems/Chaos) more but as always, Stewart is an excellent writer.|4 of|From Library Journal|This book's central theme involves two remarkably nonintuitive facts. First, a completely symmetric plane looks the same at every point and from every angle. We find this uninteresting and pay it no heed. Thus, what we detect as symmetry is
Many philosophers have been impressed by the patterns in the physical world and have seen God as a mathematician. However, it is the breaking of symmetry that is responsible for nature's patterns. This work examines an array of natural phenomena to show the importance of broken symmetries. In doing so, it addresses some of the deepest concepts of modern physics - the arrow of time, the handedness of life, and the origins of biological form.
