Vom Labyrinth, das Theseus bei seiner Suche nach dem Minotaur abweichte, bis hin zu den exquisit modellierten Heckenlabyrinth englischer Landhäuser, ist das Labyrinth seit Jahrhunderten eine Quelle großer Freude und Frustration. In The Amazing Book of Mazes präsentiert der preisgekrönte Labyrinth-Designer Adrian Fisher über 350 Fotos von mehr als 150 zeitgenössischen und historischen Labyrinth-Designs, jedes komplett dreidimensional und interaktiv. In Begleittext erklärt Fisher die Komplexitäten, Innovationen und Symbolik jedes Labyrinths. Angeordnet nach Typ, einschließlich vertikaler, horizontaler und sogar Spiegel-Labyrinthe, laden diese Labyrinth nicht alle Lösung ein, aber sie testen die Grenzen der eigenen Phantasie. Und mit Labyrinthen, die ein Wiederaufleben in der Popularität genießen, könnte der Zeitpunkt für diese betörende, umfassende Geschichte und Feier nicht besser sein.
