I purchased the book because I was looking for design ideas and thought this book would help but the author went out of his way to point out that the beauty of the phi ratio often described is not real or is over hyped. That is to say that phi has not been used as often as some people say. That being said the author did point out some very amazing things about what he called the most irrational number. The book is broad is scope from history (when is was really first described), art (where is can be proven or 1st described as being used in various art forms and where not), science() , nature(), math (like prime Fibonacci numbers are prime number in the Fibonacci sequence) just to mention a few topics covered by Phi The book did not mention what I call little phi 0.618.... or 1/phi but big Phi (1.618...) is an amazing number and the book goes into great detail If you know nothing about Phi or are a Phi fanatic this book could be of interest to you.Read full review
