Bibliotheksexemplar mit Signaturschild und Stempeln, ein gutes Exemplar / Library copy with signature label and stamps, a good copy - Cotents: Introduction - From Intuitive Concepts to the Definition of Symmetry -- Symmetry of One-Sided Rosettes -- Symmetry of Figures with a Singular Point -- Symmetry of One-Sided Bands -- Symmetry of Two-Sided Bands -- Symmetry of Rods -- Symmetry of Network Patterns - Two-Dimensional Continua and Semicontinua -- Symmetry of Layers -- Symmetry of Three-Dimensional Spaces - Discontinua and Continua -- Elements of Group Theory - The Classical Crystallographic Groups -- Groups of Generalized Symmetry - Antisymmetry and Colored Symmetry -- Symmetry in Science and Art - Conservation Laws - Symmetrization and Dissymmetrization of Physical Systems - Principle of Symmetry for Composite Systems. - A beautifully illustrated book of wide interest to modern science, this brilliant work offers a trenchant analysis of the symmetry method for revealing the invariants of transformations and for describing the inner structure of materials and ideal systems. -- The volume presents clear expositions of the theory of expansions, the derivation of limiting groups of color symmetry, and color tensors. In addition, the dissymmetrization principle of Pierre Curie is joined with the newly discovered principle of symmetrization to form a single symmetry principle of composite systems. The final chapter provides an intriguing study of the relevance of group theory to the symmetry (harmony) of art and music. A work of major significance, this well-designed volume is not only essential reading, but will offer many hours of pleasure for professionals and students alike.
