Wondrous One Sheet Origami

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Meenakshi Mukerji's work is both intricate and lovely. She's greatly respected in the origami world, one of the well-known world leaders in modular origami. Her books offer a nice exposition of the mathematical elements, but you're not being hit over the head with math lessons. You learn things without even realizing that you have."

-Dr. Robert J. Lang

"Meenakshi Mukerji is one of today's masters of modular origami, designs comprised of multiple pieces of paper. She also brings her ingenuity and creativity to designs made from a single piece of paper. Among the most appealing aspects of her single sheet work is the way she subtly manipulates a purely geometric form to fold a flower, a leaf, a butterfly, or card suits."

-Peter Engel

"Meenakshi Mukerji's new book Wondrous One Sheet Origami is not simply an origami instruction book. It is a celebration of the myriad wonders of the natural world and the infinite variety of their color and form. Mukerji recreates this rich world with her ingenious sense of design and shares it with readers using clear, accessible instructions. A valuable addition to any origami library!"

-Meher McArthur

"The Wondrous One Sheet Origami by Meenakshi Mukerji is exactly the kind of thing our members like to fold. The more advanced fractal designs at the end of the book found a lot of interest, and some of the flower folds were so inviting that many wanted to fold them right away"

"Profusely illustrated with clear step-by-step instructions, Wondrous One Sheet Origami is thoroughly 'user friendly' in tone, commentary, organization and presentation. While especially and unreservedly recommended for school, community and academic library Origami instructional reference collections, it should be noted for the personal lists of students, professionals, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject."
