编辑推荐为什么古代的建筑大多是方与圆的组合？麦田怪圈给了我们什么启示？黄金比例的奥秘在哪里？为什么我们觉得五边形美？《创世记》里的数字各有什么含义？
伽利略曾作出这样形容：整个宇宙就是一本用数学语言写成的巨大的书，只有懂数学的人才读得明白。因为他们精通三角形、圆形及其他各种几何图形，而这些看似简单的几何元素构成了整个世界最初的模样。但几何法则并不是人类创作智慧的产物。没有任何时间的界限，它们早已存在于天地自然间，万事万物中，无处不在。
《神圣几何》用精细全彩的手绘图像和电脑图讲述古老神秘的创世故事，伟大的人类文明、自然规律和宇宙法则在此展开……无论你是对神秘领域充满狂热，还是喜欢研究几何学，都不应该错过这本书。

你能否相信，我们所处的立体宇宙世界可以被描绘成一幅几何平面图？
你能否想象，我们通过日常可见的图形（圆、三角形、五边形等）就可追踪世界起源？
你能否发现，我们随时可以脱口而出的数字1，2，3……竟会隐藏着神奇的宇宙信息？
毋问“能”与“否”，我想此时此刻你的脑袋瓜肯定被问号占据了——不过先hold住，先来听个故事吧！故事名叫《神圣几何》—— 一个关于数字和几何图形的创世故事，由神圣几何学研究专家约翰·米歇尔精彩诠释。
听故事前，我们先来了解一下这个故事的舞台背景——“神圣几何学”吧。别看它披着一件“几何学”的外衣，并冠上“神圣”的头衔，其实它的真面目是自然哲学的一个分支呢！它是自然哲学思想中融入数学几何的研究，或称以几何图形为符号传递来自造物主神圣智慧的艺术美学；说到“神圣”，果然有迹可寻——“神圣几何学”的核心是认为数字和图形是胜于简单符号的语言，有指代有含义，甚至蕴含感情。
好了，扫盲完毕，我们进入“听故事”模式，听作者娓娓道来吧……
