The thinkers of ancient Egypt, Greece and India recognized that numbers governed much of what they saw in their world and hence provided an approach to its divine creator. In his book sacred geometry Robert Lawlor explains the system that determines the dimension and form of both man-made and natural structures, from gothic cathedrals to flowers, from music to the human body. Involving the reader in practical experiments, in 9 workbooks the author leads from simple principles to a grasp of the logarithmic spiral, the Golden Proportion, the squaring of the circle and other ubiquitous ratios and proportions.

The 9 workbooks are listed here. Some parts are illustrated with interactive geometry.
