Origami3 is a book unique in its approach to the practice of origami, going beyond folding instructions to address the implications and applications of this art. Over the last decade, the practice and art of origami has increasingly become a subject of scholarly inquiry in a number of disciplenes, attested to by its appearance as a topic at the 2002 American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting. The Third International Meeting of Origami Science, Math and Education attracted participants from around the world who conduct origami research with a diversity of approaches from the theoretical and mathematical foundations of paper folding to the use of origami as a teaching tool for mathematics and language.

Industry Reviews

These proceedings...offer a valuable insight into how mathematics and Origami are interrelated. This collection of fascinating papers range from the mathematics of a single fold on a rectangular piece of paper (Haga's TUP) to a mathematical model for non-flat origami. It includes several articles about modular origami... as well as about the perhaps more familiar single-sheet style. Some articles take simple origami starting points to develop an aspect of mathematics, whilst others use mathematics to gain insight into the nature of families of origami objects. It is not a 'how to' book about paperfolding, but a book of paperfolding mathematics. Any mathematician who delves inside will certainly find things to be fascinated by. -David Mitchell, The Mathematical Gazette, March 2006
