Just a question. Does anyone know where the origami books have all gone off amazon? I have a few off there already which were quite good but was wanting to have a go at tesselations but all the books have dissapeared. Anyone know of anywhere else that is good to get books on tessellations for a complete novice?
Thanks

There are only two books (that I know of) dealing with origami tessellations. Only one of these is available outside of Japan.
Eric Gjerde's book "Origami Tessellations: awe-inspiring geometric designs" is still listed with several copies in stock:

Nicolas Terry sells some Japanese books by Shuzo Fujimoto to this subject:
