Exploring Nature's Pattern Magic

Exploring Nature's Pattern Magic, by Dee Pignéguy


Nature displays an endless variety of eye-catching patterns in a variety of form, colour and texture.
Patterns help us understand how energy flows through nature’s network of complex systems. Patterns show us how nature’s organisms survive, how they make things and how life is organized and connected on our planet- Earth Nature’s patterns give us an introduction and understanding of mathematics. She packs efficiently, ties knots, builds columns, makes hexagons, uses spirals and nets and bubbles. But thinking about and seeing the mathematics of nature requires practice. So open your eyes and discover a new way of looking at the world around you.

Dee Pigneguy came to New Zealand from Canada in 1963 and trained as a primary school teacher. Her interest in nutrition, healthy food and nature developed as she grew up on a remote coastal property in British Columbia. Her mother, Joan Donley engaged all her children in their self-sufficient lifestyle, growing fruit and vegetables, raising pigs, chickens, duck and goats and gathering shellfish at low tide .Dee believes her new book Exploring Nature’s Pattern Magic will help people engage with nature and realise just how important the natural environment is to sustaining our own life here on Planet Earth
