Where have all the books gone?

Post by gem'n'sam »

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 :P

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:
