Why the honoree chose the book
It has been asked for long time whether we use math in our daily life. Anywhere you find shape, chance, and symmetry, there will be mathematics present. The universe is full of symmetric objects such as honeycombs and flowers. This book relates mathematics and the universe with examples from real life.
