SUMMARY- This book is an extensive gallery of the different styles of origami, covering an international cast of folding masters, and building a history of the transformation of this craft into a highly effective artform. This book isn't a folder's manual, but a well-written portrait on the state of the art of origami. I got lost in this one for many hours.
