Sphere Angels And Devils Tessellation by Escher M.C. Escher (1898-1972), Escher was a 20th century Dutch graphic artist recognized for his unique interpretation of repeating patterns (tessellations), impossible architecture, and skills in woodcutting and lithography. Although lacking formal training in math or science, he was greatly appreciated by mathematicians, scientists, and crystallographers for his intuitive capacity for transforming geometric shape into a workable and adapting scheme. He became fascinated by the regular Division of the Plane when he visited Alhambra, a 14th-century Moorish castle in Granada, Spain in 1922. Later he would extend his passion from paper to carved beech wood spheres. Material: Resin with hand-painted color details Size: 4.5 in. x 3.5 in. x 3.5 in. Weight: 1.5 lbs. Almost all of our items come with a history card or string history card that provides background on the history, mythology, location and main characteristics of the ancient original. Many items come boxed in elegant color gift boxes . We are progressively including more items in color boxes. Museum Reproductions Information: History of Art Reproductions: As far as we know, the history of art reproductions takes us back to Imperial Rome where bronze and marble reproductions of Greek masterpieces served as decoration for lavish Roman Villas and Gardens. The art of casting is thousands of years old: Terracottas, Bronzes and ancient glass were cast from molds. Closer to our time in the mid 18th century coinciding with the search for new artistic styles which took inspiration from the roots of classic art (neoclassicism) and the discovery of Herculaneum in 1738 and Pompeii in 1748, archaeological reproductions reappeared all over Europe. As a result of French expeditions to Egypt during the nineteenth century, a casting facility was set up next to the Louvre Museum where many important archaeological pieces from ancient Egypt were reproduced. Following the example of the Louvre, other leading European museums began to |

Fish Bird Tessellation Statue by Escher M.C. Escher (1898-1972) Escher was a 20th century Dutch graphic artist recognized for his unique interpretation of repeating patterns (tessellations), impossible architecture, and skills in woodcutting and lithography. Although lacking formal training in math or science, he was greatly appreciated by mathematicians, scientists, and crystallographers for his intuitive capacity for transforming geometric shape into a workable and adapting scheme. He became fascinated by the regular Division of the Plane when he visited Alhambra, a 14th-century Moorish castle in Granada, Spain in 1922. Later he would extend his passion from paper to carved beech wood spheres. From Escher's series of tessellations, this artwork illustrates the the rhythmic pattern of rows of fish and rows of birds in harmonic movement. It is both mesmerizing and dizzying in its simplicity and complexity. Size: 7 in. x 7 in. x 2 in. Type: statue The reproductions we offer are original artworks created by skilled sculptors carved from clay, stone or wood. A silicon mold is then made from the original sculpture. For many statues, that mold is then used to cast a stone and resin reproduction that hardens into a form with all the texture and detail of the original. All finishing is done by hand. Many of these items include fine color detail, a labor intensive process where color is applied with very small brushes by a group of skilled artisans. Nearly all Your Museum Store products contain a history card that provides enlightening information on the history, mythology, location and distinct characteristics of your purchase. Many items also ship in elegant color boxes and more are being added all the time. You are sure to enjoy every aspect of your unique museum keepsake from Your Museum Store . |

The 10 Things All Future Mathematicians and Scientists Must Know by Edward Zaccaro The Challenger explosion, the failure of the Mars Orbiter, and the Kansas City Hyatt Regency walkway collapse all involved thinking errors. This book presents the ten things our future mathematicians and scientists must know to prevent these kinds of tragedies from occurring. Because science and mathematics instruction is often dominated by facts and calculation, children are rarely exposed to these important concepts. Over 50 stories are included that show children the strong connections between mathematics and science and the real world. (Grades 4th - 12th). |

Math Blaster in the Prime Adventure for Nintendo Game Boy DS With Math Blaster in the Prime Adventure, the venerable educational series makes the leap from home computers to Nintendo DS. As in earlier Math Blaster releases, players face a series of action-oriented challenges and mini-games that require math skills as well as arcade skills. The games are intended to engage the zealous gamer, as well as the budding mathematician, in its players. The Prime Adventure features an "Adventure" mode that leads players through a series of 20 challenges, as a science fiction story develops between levels. Players are free to play any game they choose in the game's "Challenge" mode. Three difficulty settings are available, and up to four DS gamers can compete in single- and multi-card multiplayer modes. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide Universal Nintendo DS Action Games Arcade Games |

Who were the greatest mathematicians of all time?
Q. I'm looking for your opinion of, at most, the top three mathematicians of all time. Tell me what you think.

A. There's only one unarguable, nobody-informed-could-dis agree member of the list: Gauss. He probably did the most important work of all time in each of the fields of abstract algebra/number theory, differential geometry, and statistics. And he did quite a bit of other stuff as well. The next guy on my personal list is Euclid. His geometry wasn't superseded for almost 2000 years. He did a bit of number theory too. Other than Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates, he was probably THE most influential thinker in a several-century period, and certainly the only candidate who was a mathematician. The third spot is a many-way competition. The contenders include Archimedes, Euler, Riemann, and Poincare'.
